Basic rule of kingo: every stone attached to a group with a king should itself be a king.
Still following a pro game, but I've gotten three extra points out of our exchanges so far since I've used a few kings. I feel good about that. I expect the a / b exchange next, and possibly one more move attempting to seal me in before leaving this corner.

There are two moves that have been played in this position by professional players, a and b. a occurred in a game by Cho Chikun, and he came back to b after the exchange. I don't think I can take advantage of that exchange if black were to tenuki, so I'm going to make the other move and play b directly. I expect black will play at the triangled point to make a sanrensai next.

Once again, there is the question of whether I should make my move a king. I could imagine some situation where black could use the threat of capturing a king to get some outside influence, but truthfully I think it breaks my strategy for that corner if I were to let that black stone escape. So I'm making it a king, trusting that the small gains in efficiency I am making will offset the heaviness of my stones later.

The left and the bottom seem like obvious places not to play right now, which leaves the top or the right hand side.

The two stones in the lower right are nice to have, and White is not fully settled, but the top is also nice for W.

All told, I'm leaning towards the sanrensei, if only because I feel like I understand the position more.

A further question is how to evaluate the influence vs territory trade that we've made so far, relative to an ordinary game of go. Say in normal go, the expected score in this position is +/- X. How does the expected score in this game compare? There are 5 white kings already played, which is one component. There is whatever loss of flexibility white has from those kings, which I think is small on this board. Then there's the value of Black's moyo. Is it larger than it would be in regular go, or can White claim those 5 points as pure profit? It's hard to tell, but I think this position is probably better for White than the corresponding position in regular go. Hopefully I'm wrong about that.

I've finally decided to include territories in the score. After all, there's a reason why Go evolved from stone scoring to area scoring.

Needless to say, this shouldn't affect your ongoing game, which was started with the old rules.

Q10, pawn.

Luigi: that means no group tax right? That slightly changes things, but I don't think I've made any decisions based on it.

Yes, that's right.

The rules are a bit longer this way, as there needs to be a definition of territory, but in the end I think practicality is more important. My original post in the Kingo thread now reflects this change as well as the use of integer komi and the button.

I'd like to stick with the original rules. I prefer them as outlined in the other thread, and I have made decisions with the group tax in mind.
