Quick review

by 5 Comments

Mostly i try to, if i write a review, do it with much time and as detailed as possible, but often, i wait too long… and the game then is not as interesting any more for me, as it would be right after playing it…

That is the reason why i write this NOW … i just finished a game and it is allready quite late & i`m tired, but i took a few minutes to write some comments and some variations… better now than never 😉

    Move 7 – I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the tenuki. This move is a good probe to figure out what you want to do in the upper right.

    Move 9 – After White responds though, it might have been interesting to press White in the upper right to generate a moyo potential on the whole board.

    Move 15 Sequence – I thought the sequence here ended up with Black being severely over-concentrated. In addition, White should have tenuki’d earlier to counter your influence with a move at the top.

    Move 35 was an overplay in my opinion. No reason not to just stand up at M16 instead in order to use the thickness on the left.

    Nice tesuji at the endgame.

    In the end, the bottom right is just way too big. White needed to do something about it earlier.

    Thanks for sharing the game!

      the downside of writing such „quick reviews“ is that i spelled the word „efficiently“ —- „effeciantly“
      😀 and some other misspellings… by the way, with my comment to move 34 … i was going in the same dirrection as you said, black is very overconcentrated … and yes, i think you are right, i guess white could have punished black better for playing so overconcentrated in the upper left.

      Thanks for leaving a comment!

        Anytime! And to your point, misspellings are frequent occurrences when typing in KGS editor. I seriously wish there was a better SGF editor for Mac. Gah!

          I did not use the KGS editor and it was not the editors fault, but my bad english! Seriously, i very often look things (spelling) up via google… yesterday: just too tired for that 🙂

            Oh you are too hard on yourself. English is not your first language so don’t sweat it! We know what you mean to write. =) You’ll just get better with practice.
