I don't believe I actually won!

Post by tekesta »

Although I won this game, my brain was on overdrive. It was a very messy game and I thought it would be a close contest, but in the end White resigned. Still, I am sure I made a few crucial mistakes herein. I would appreciate if you point them out for me.



This is a game in which I took 3 Black handis and lost by 27.5 pts. It appears I was not attacking enough; within the first 30 moves I would've done well to attack the White group on the lower right corner. I'll say that White played rather well. At least this person reminded me that weiqi involves a fair bit of suffering :oops:



One thing I would like to know are the possible consequences of ignoring White 13 and instead, say, attach either White's group in the upper left or the lower right. White had sente for much of the game and my failure to attack her weak groups in the early opening might've been my downfall.

Right after that one, I played as Black in another 3-stone game and won by 20.5 pts. Here I attempted to complicate things as much as possible.




Much obliged for your kind commentary.
