A 3-stone game against cosumi

Post by tekesta »

Here is a game that I played as Black against COSUMI. On 3 stone handicap I won by 23 pts., but I feel like I made more than a few slow moves. Much obliged in advance for your comments.

:b20: Better pincer on the top side.

:b24: Slow.

:b26: Weakens the Black group in the top left.

:b28: Should hane at D-18.

:w29: Excellent shape.

:w35: White can kill the top left corner.

:b48: Better jump to N-15, separating and attacking White. Also helps the four Black stones at N-17.

:b58: Better to continue the fight with L-13.
