Can someone help-me with a review about this game? 10k game.

Post by DiogoBarbosa »

Hello,
Can someone help-me with a review about this game? ^^

I think that my greatest mistakes started with my move at 49, because I didn't know how to use my Wall =/
Note: In my mind, I think something like "This reduce at 50 is deep, or I kill or I lost, let's try.")

I'm black.

Thank you very much.



Thank you very much!!!!

And a good week for all.
Hello,
I'll be a good player one day...

Your game losing mistake was resigning. :)

You still have good chances to win, especially as your opponent is not very strong. One possible plan is to reduce White's right side and build a central framework.

I think that you do know how to use your wall, or at least your attitude seems correct. Even if white lived this time, you will learn a lot by playing moves like :b49: and :b51:.

The :b37: :w38: exchange helped white out. You would consider :b37: if it would keep white weak or if you needed to play it to live. Otherwise, it is endgame.

My comment at :b11: in particular should be taken with a grain of salt since I'm not nearly strong enough to say anything decisive on the issue.

I would have played at Q15, then K17 as soon as possible after :w20: It seems to me Black was playing an influence game and the aforementioned moves would have been advantageous in this regard. Can't play for influence without establishing it first :)

Black resigned too early. There was still plenty of time to turn the game around, starting with an attempt to reduce White's groups on the top left and right sides. :b49: should have been played at Q8, I think. This would help shore up the weak Black group on the bottom right part of the board and help reduce the White moyo on the right side.

I recommend to the OP to replay kifu by his favorite historical or modern pro as part of his training régime, from start to finish. This way he can develop a feel for how to play in his preferred style. I think he will do well replaying games by Hon'inbô Shûei or Huang Longshi, if historical pros are his cup of tea. Otherwise, games by, say, Takemiya or Yu Chang-hyeok should prove useful. Let's not forget Rin Kai-hô and Hon'inbô Shûho; these players had an attack-oriented style that can prove useful to the influence-oriented player. As well, the OP should replay kifu by pros preferring a territorial style of play (Shûsaku, Kobayashi Kôichi and most modern Korean pros) to better understand how such players play against opponents preferring to play for influence.
