  • A Kifu-Spread of a game between Lee Sedol and Hong Jangsik from April 23, 2003.
    Lee Sedol drives a ladder that doesn't seem to work for him... and it kind of worked in an insane way!
    Sorry about the name. It is Hong Jangsik, not Hong Jangseok.

    The best way to improve Go Instinct is to spread kifus by yourself on a real Goban, but we are all kind of lazy. So, at Simple Baduk, we do it for you!
    Just by watching me spreading this kifu on the board, you will be able to improve your "Go Sense" or "Go Instinct". After you watch a handful of Kifu-Spread videos, you will start to notice your Go Instinct had improved and wants to play certain moves that you would never have thought of before that day.

    what a legend. to make his opponent second guess himself on what most believe to be the most basic of plays. and then to actually have a hidden trap in waiting that no one saw. Lee Sedol is by far my favorite living player

    I've veryrarely been able to understand the pro games, at all given the high level of play; so your commentary was one of the best I've listened to explaining such a game and giving me a glimpse of so many varied types of decisions the players were making during this game. I cannot put into words how awesome the game is conveyed and that's due to the players abilities and also your helpful ability to explain. Thank you very much.

    Can you explain why white didn't use all the weaknesses after the failed ladder ? The big weakness of the ladder is that if you can't capture what's inside, the opponent has a huge connected chain with double ataris everywhere around it. That would have made a big influential diagonal in the center and many dead stones. But they both seem to ignore it ? And all of that was to capture 5 stones ? I'm a bit lost.

    • @simplebaduk
      @simplebaduk  Рік тому +4

      Because both players think those stones are ''garbage stones''. Capturing each one of them is only worth 2 points but white needs 2 moves to capture a stone so that is basically about 1 point per move. If white wants, then white can go back and capture those stones any time white wants. Black also considers them as dead stones, so doesn't even bother doing anything with them. But, black can use them to threaten white when moving around stones near those garbage stones. At that point of the game, white cannot allow black to live too comfortably, so white had to answer black's moves rather than making 2-point ponukis everywhere.
