No more updates at "Truth and Go"

I will never stop playing Go but my study at the film academy is very time consuming and while i have several other hobbys as well ... i think i should stop with writing about my Go-progress.

At the moment it is hard enough to find some time to actually play ...

Maybe i will reactivate this blog someday...

Have a nice game!

Loosing games - learning why

2011-11-28T10:03:00.000-08:00

In the last time, i`m not very successful, i lost most of the games i played.
That might have to do something with the fact that i`m working on a documentary film right now, that keeps me busy most of the time. But anyway i think it is not wise to always look for a excuse for a lost game – i`m just not soo good at playing as i would like to be, my opening skills, intuition, life and death ... there is so much too learn.
What i do regular since a few weeks is solving tsumego... and i replay pro games and read some go books about the opening.
To loose a long, and kind of "serious", game, just after some hours of study is the most frustrating thing ... you just started to think "oh yes, i really learned much, i just became stronger" ... and then ... after you loose, you realize how much there is left to learn.
Some people are managing it to become shodan with in 2 or 3 years, in my case, i think it will take me several years from now on until i will get there... maybe i don`t have any talent for being a good go player, but that is not important, i love to play, and if i have to study more and harder, to become a dan player one day, i will do so.
And in fact becoming "shodan" is not the main goal, the main goal is to get a more profund understanding of the game that will help to enjoy the game even more.

Even if i can`t win much games at the moment, i feel like it is a very good thing, to analyze every played game, to find out why it was lost or won.

Here are 2 games, both have variations and comments included.

"The one with the second chance"

"The one with the lost chance"

2011-11-27T15:06:00.000-08:00

I was white. Time: 20 min + 20 stones in 6 minutes canadian time.

B7: I do not know much joseki
W8: Not very common, but possible
W10: Maybe my first mistake, has to be at p4.
W18: I thought there is a chance to live with the 2 stones at Q5, but they got killed.
W58: I did not played very clever here
W124: Maybe the loosing move, if white played L2 instead of w124 maybe i could have won the game.

Winning a lost game

2011-11-21T13:50:00.000-08:00

Sometimes you win a game, but afterwards you realize that you indeed played badly and that you only won, because of some more or less unexpected mistakes of your opponent, who was playing, until some blunder, better than you!

Here are 2 such games:

"The one which was won late and with some luck"

B11: Unusual, you can call it a "joseki-mistake"
W18: Big question is: did white answered correct here after B11?
W42: I don`t think now, that the exchange W42 for B43 was good for white...
W44: best move on the board? Maybe better to play at the bottom now...
W54: Right direction? Maybe better to attack from the other side ... but i wanted to avoid overconcentration and did not like the idea of "W44 at N3 and B45 at H3"
W62: I guess white is overconcentrated here anyway now.
W96: Something went wrong here,
whites group is in too great danger, isn`t it?
B113: Black is leading now!
B125: If black would not have played tenuki here and answer with D12 i think it is hard to win the game for white.
W136: I think if black plays at B14 now and would have saved his group in the corner, black is still favorable.

W18: normally white plays B17 now.
B23: Too far from blacks thickness?
W26: Good timing
B29: Better at R15!
B39: I`m quite sure now that this move was bad! (even if it helped in the endgame to turn the game around because white made a mistake)
W48: Of course
B51: Yes? Don`t know if this move was good or not...
B62: This was a very interesting game for me!
W72: Maybe black should not have answered W70 with B71 and instead play at W72
B219: White has more points now and should have won easily .
W244: This is the loosing move.White missed something and after B249 killed the white group, black can win the game undeserved!

The WBaduk Challenge - Part. 4

2011-11-21T12:37:00.000-08:00

Again i lost against a 16 Kyu at WBaduk (while i can win every now and then against a 5 Kyu at KGS).
First i was very frustrated about this, but then realized that even if go is a serious game, one should never forget to see things with humor.

My excuse is always: I was not taking my opponent serious enough and as a result i was playing too fast.

But this is not a excuse, if i`m not able to take my opponents serious, even if they are just "16 Kyu" i have to be a 16 kyu as well until i learn some more about tactics and strategy.

And i wonder if i would have played much better if i took more time to think...

Whatever, i`m looking forward to my next WBaduk game.

Here is the game with some comments:

W10: White tenuki! i like this move, it was surprising, but i think it is better than answering locally to B9
W24: White is playing her own game.
B16: Can black kill now?
W18: White tenuki again! Now black can kill the lower left corner no? Confusing.
B37: Looks slow, white has sente now.
B73: What? The corner is alive and white has sente? Black failed.
B155: I think black is leading and has a pretty good chance to win the game.
B193: This Ko is so painful for black .
B183: Maybe better at D8? In the game black has some trouble soon...
B211: This is the loosing move! Black should fight the Ko! There is at least 1 ko threat for black at C2!
And even if black looses the ko, black would still have good chance to win!
W218: Uuups, game over here for black.

Conclusion:
Before i can make some real progress, i have to learn to concentrate for a longer time ... and i have to judge situations realistic ... i still , even in long games, play these "i only trust my intuition" moves, i don`t read carefully enough ... reading is exhausting and it is often much easier to think: "no no, i`m sure this will work - i f e e l i t!" ... but these kind of feelings are, in my case, often misguiding.

"The one with the white corner which suddenly dies"

35 min + 3x 1:10 min - i was black and won by resignation

W4: Nirensei vs. Nireinsei
B9: I only play this move if i have support around the side (here there is a stone at K4)
B15: Indeed i played the one space jump here because i like to fight, and because this puts some pressure on the white group around Q8.
B21: I learned from my teacher that this move makes black overconcentrated.
B35: it looks good for black now
W44: Uups , black made some mistakes here, white escapes too easily
B61: not a very good move, although later it will help black, but that was because white made some mistakes.
W62: Black has some trouble now ...
B81: Uups, it looks already that it is possible for black to kill the whole corner ... or do you find a way for white to live?
W166: White did not realize that there was still some aji!

Conclusion:
I really thought long and careful here, that is the main thing, even if i would have lost the game, i was satisfied with my level of concentration ... even if one can never be -really- satisfied... it`s like Biondy Alfian`s motto for his go blog: "You will find no end in go!"

(truthandgo.blogspot.com/modus-operandi = Older blog entry which explains why i`m publishing all my "serious" games here ... and truthandgo.blogspot.com/one-with.html = why it`s fun to find names for your games )

I highly recommend you to read this blog:

Antti Törmänen is studying as an Insei (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insei)
in Japan!
He writes about Go Theory, Japan, his experiences at the Nihon Ki-in and several other things.
I just discovered this blog via twitter yesterday, and i`m very exited to read it from the beginning.

And today it is "Go of Ten`s" first birthday! Congratulations and good luck for Antti Törmänen, i think we all wish him that he will become a pro!

“Competition and faith are my life-long vocations. Like water and fire, I depend on both. When I couldn’t outrank the others, it was time for me to leave. There are two things in my life, truth and Go.” Go Seigen

W12: Up to here the opening was exactly like Cho Chikun (w) against Yamada Kimio (b) 14.02.2002 B+, with b13 Yamada Kimio played at R7 next.
W16: Was it a good move? I don`t know.
W18: in relation with the white group at Q4 i don`t think this pincer is the best move now. Maybe high pincer , one or two space would have been better.
B29: I think tenuki is wrong here.
W30: I just read a article in "Go World" by Michael Redmond about the Nirensei opening, in which this move was mentioned.
B33: Overplay?
W38: Best answer?
W46: Tenuki now?! I think this was mistake, white should have answered locally at S15.
W48: This was a typical "You have to play wherever you want" (Takemiya Masaki) move!
W74: White is alive.
B75: What if black instead at F13 now? Is whites group at D16 in danger... ?
W76: Important , white is lucky to play here.
W102: White could have killed the two stones in the top right corner with S19 but i thought W102 at P13 is bigger.
W126: Black can`t play at M4 now!

Some great things you should not miss!
-Go Down Under: An interview with David Ormerod
-The Scoop.it topic about Go Seigen, one of the greatest go players in history
-Some interesting information about Go history
-The Scoop.it topic about Go , curated by GoGameGuru
and there, the following two articles i liked most:

-http://www.weiqiok.com Chinese Go website with a lot of free tsumegos.
-igokisen : Very cool , you find the most (or all?) important professional tournaments and titles here ... often you can download the kifu ... the main sites are looking like this:

I´m sure most of you know these sites already, but this post is just for those who did not :-)

And last but not least this picture was found here: http://www.flickriver.com/photos/tags/baduk/interesting/

You will find a lot of other interesting go pictures there, and constantly new pictures are added!

The One With Many Weak Groups

2011-11-09T12:44:00.000-08:00

25 min + 3x 1:10 min byo-yomi , i was white and won by resignation.
W10: Maybe not good, better @ M16
W34: strange situation now, i decided to focus on the the center...
W42: Tenuki maybe not best, black can force white into bad shape at the top now
B63: Several weak groups now... complicated situation.
B73: This area is not very important at the moment ...
W80: Risky for white, the group in the center is in great danger, maybe the contact play of B79 can`t be ignored and white should have answered.
B87: I think this is not the right place to play at the moment... but black wants to stop white from getting profit through the attack, later the black group got killed, with B87 maybe black should have reinforced it.
W158: white is soo lucky to get this move ... the situation for white was dangerous... i played to careless.

The WBaduk Challenge - Part. 2

2011-11-07T16:44:00.000-08:00

Here 2 new Wbaduk games ... it is hard to feel how much weaknesses i still have, while i´m trying hard to study and learn more about the game ... i see that i still make much beginner-mistakes.
But it motivates me to even study more and harder... ;-)

The first game has some variations and comments included.

"The one with the running group"
I was white and lost by resignation.

"The one with the sudden death"
In the next game i was white and won by "time" (=because it was not a fast game, and my opponent had much time left, i guess it was like a resignation).

I think black should atari with b54 at D12.
I guess w96 was not good.
B103: was a big success for black .
W130: if white does not kill something, white has not enough points.
W154: i was very very very lucky to win this game... i think black could have made live easily.
Again i made so many mistakes in this game ... it was not very long game, i played rather fast even while there was still a lot of time for both players. I have to think longer and harder to get out of the double digit kyu area at Wbadu!

The WBaduk Challenge

2011-11-05T12:19:00.000-07:00

As i mentioned before i have some trouble at the "WBaduk go server" with getting out of the double digit kyu area. Actually i`m 16 kyu there, while i`m 6 Kyu at Kgs. Maybe you think i`m a sandbagger ... but i`m not ... i started with my KGS rank there and fall all the way to 17 kyu!
But i don`t want to write about the reason(`s) here again ... if you are interested in this topic you can read older posts here:
truthandgo: dont-think-just-use-the-force
truthandgo: loosing-at-wbaduk-is-fun
From now on i will publish here on this blog absolute every game i play at WBaduk ... and write as many reviews about them as possible. It is so frustrating that i`m only 16 kyu at this Go server, that at the moment it is more important for me to become something like 8 Kyu at Wbaduk than 5 or 4 Kyu at KGS.
I will concentrate fully on this goal and maybe from now on you like to follow this fight between me and some double digit WBaduk kyu players ;-)
Now following here are the first two games, i think i played them about 2 weeks ago. Until now, i have not played at WBaduk again, but i will start again today or tomorrow.

"The one with the closing door to the center"
In this game i was white. I won by resignation. After black invaded the top i felt like i`m going to loose the game... but a few moves later, black allowed me to build a huge moyo i at the bottom and in the center ... and i could invade the left side (too) easily. I did not played very well but my opponent did not punish my mistakes good enough.

"The one with the ignored ko threat"
I was white again, i won by 12,5 points.
This game was very interesting, because there where a lot of fights. After white killed 3 black stones with W38 i felt that the opening was good for me. Maybe W54 was a mistake because after B55 and B59 black has somehow sealed in white a bit. But after W68 white has limited blacks influence in the center ... but now white has two weak groups ... after W98 there are several weak groups ... some black, some white...
The Ko in the low right corner is game decisive. After W188 i thought there is not much chance for the big black group in the center to survive, but after the cut of B197 and after W200 (i think this was my biggest mistake in this game) the situation changed dramatically. Black can live and killed a important white group in the top left corner. But there was still the ko! After black ignored the ko-threat at W260 i could kill a black group in the center... this gave white the victory.

“You should look at the board and play wherever you want to. This is the way to get stronger.” Takemiya Masaki

"The one with ... "

2011-11-05T06:43:00.000-07:00

I think it is fun to find names for your own games like in the books of John Fairbairn (for example: Kamakura). Of course it is bit funny when a 6 Kyu, like i am, does this for his own games, because normally only important games are seen like they deserve a own name, which reflects what was happening on or around the board. I do it as well ... not without humor ;-) ... because i think it is a good way to ask yourself: "What was the essential thing for me regarding this game?"

"The one against the 1 Kyu"
This was no handicap game against a 1kyu.
Even if i was far behind i played till the end.
I ask my self if there was a way for black to live after Q2 without Ko?
I think N16 is something like the loosing move ... it would have been much better to take the Ko again...

"The one with the iron pillar"
Next game was against a 6 Kyu.
From W6 to B15 we played joseki ... it is very nice to look up a joseki afterwards and to find out that you played the "right" moves, without knowing that joseki before ... BUT W16 was not a joseki-move, normally it is played at G16. W16 is maybe a bad move.
Until B15 the same opening was played before by at least 2 professionals.
W28 against B27 is a common tactic, maybe B29 would have been better at P3 and after W36 the result looks good for white in my eyes?! What do you think about W48? Was this a silly or a good move? I don`t know yet...
The extension of W56 seems to be a bit too far...
But the most important move/situation in this game is after B119
- i think this move was good timing- ... black made a mistake with B123...
i think he could have done much more here: pushing with B123 at E13 for example, white has to block at D13 now ... then after B125 at E12 ... if W126 at E11 now ... black can Ko-connect ... if W126 at G11 ... black can push at E11, white blocks at E10 and black pushes at D12 ... white is painful, because after the atari at D10 ... black can connect.

Best before poka

2011-10-31T15:47:00.000-07:00

Although in this game i made a terrible endgame mistake, i`m not regretting it completely ... it was a long and very nice game.

It would have been not hard to see the shortage of liberties after W250 ... but sometimes in the endgame, especially if i`m leading, i totally stop thinking and play like there is nowhere any aji left and like all the moves of my opponent are just desperate attempts to turn the situation around ... i answer like filling in dame points before counting... this is stupid i should take the endgame much more serious... i was so terrible unaware at the moment white played move 250 that i played B253! ... not actually realizing that white is about to connect ... if i would have played a ko threat now at F1 ... the game would have been still favorable for black!
But anyway ... i think i played not very bad before i played the poka , and there were much interesting situations in this game (for example the question if B55 was a good move?), much more interesting than the endgame-poka... see yourself ... here is the game:

Like Water and Fire

2011-10-29T05:50:00.000-07:00

Here something for all fans of Go Seigen aka. Wu Qingyuan ... maybe the strongest Go player of all time...
At this Italian Go blog: http://goigoweiqibaduk.blogspot.com/ i found pictures from some of Go Seigens Jubangos ... i think they are very beautiful. Enjoy!

Go Seigen vs. Kitani Minoru

Fujisawa Hosai vs. Go Seigen

Go Seigen vs. Fujisawa Hosai

Go Seigen vs. Iwamoto Kaoru

Sakata Eio vs. Go Seigen

Go Seigen vs. Takagawa Kaku

Hashimoto Utaro vs. Go Seigen

Update: And in addition i just found this video with Go Seigen himself from Japanese television via twitter!

“Competition and faith are my life-long vocations. Like water and fire, I depend on both. When I couldn’t outrank the others, it was time for me to leave. There are two things in my life, truth and Go.”
Go Seigen

Regrettable Game

2011-10-29T05:15:00.000-07:00

This game was played with 25 min + 5 x 30 seconds ...
I played poorly...
B9 is very unusual ... the next time i meet a much stronger player i will ask what he (or her) would play with w10.
W12 was maybe a bit naive.
I think W24 is a mistake, better play at P4 ?! After w47 i was not feeling bad about the game ... W110 is a big mistake ... how could i think that i can kill this group if b did not answer? Or is there a way? I din`t think so now ... playing a ko threat which is not threat is silly...
I just overlooked that i had to protect against the atari with w112... actually there would have been enough time to think...

eyecatcher [6k\]: even
HeGeX [6k\]: i dont know. lately i have felt 6k's are quite easy :) you were not :)
eyecatcher [6k\]: ah, yes
eyecatcher [6k\]: i know what you mean
eyecatcher [6k\]: sometimes there is a 6 kyu and plays very poor
HeGeX [6k\]: yeah
eyecatcher [6k\]: but sometimes you get beaten by a 7 kyu!
eyecatcher [6k\]: kyu grades are not meaning much i think
HeGeX [6k\]: yeah there has been some 7 and 8k's who plays really hard
eyecatcher [6k\]: and if you have a good day ... you can win against anybody ...

Again 2 Long Games

2011-10-28T15:40:00.000-07:00

Maybe the kifu of a KGS 6 kyu are not a very interesting thing ... but to publish all my "serious" games, helps me to concentrate better while i`m playing them ... it is a psychological thing, because if i know that i`m going to publish them here, i will try harder to avoid shameful mistakes ... :-)

The first game contains quite a few variations and comments.

Time : 30 min + 3x 1:10 min Byo-yomi , i was black.

2 Long Games and Some Words About Poka

2011-10-23T18:55:00.000-07:00

Sometimes one should stop playing one fast game after the other ... again and again... i think you can only feel the real beauty of the game if you think hard and long ... if you do not make poka (blunder) and if you try hard to find the best move in each situation.

"Smartbot" a KGS-legend is suggesting this as well in this interview at Gosensations.com:
As for kids self studying, my suggestion is:
1. Playing more serious slow games instead of blitz games.
2. Reading more Go books.
3. Paying attention to Asian top pro games, trying to guess the idea behind each move.
'Smartrobot' 9d (Jin Jing 2p)

By the way... here are the first lines at Sensei's Library about Poka :

A blunder (poka in Japanese) is a mistake of which one feels it is way below one's level. There are two issues:

Maybe it is indicative of your level [!!]
How to avoid blunders

Velobici: A blunder is a result of Go blindness. A situation in which you fail to see what is thud-simple when pointed out to you.

If you are having problems with the poka-issue as well (like i have) ... the article "how to avoid blunders" could be useful for you, here are the 7 points without the explanation:

1) Sit On Your Hands.

2) Think Before You Play.

3) Use a Squeeze Ball or Similar Object.

4) Use Checklists.

5) Ignore Your Assumptions.

6) Put Your Blunders Behind You.

7) Don't Move (and Think) Until You're Uncertain.

In the next game (i was black) the situation after B155 was interesting.
I thought that W156 at F8 would kill blacks group in the center ... but afterwards i thought i found a way that even then black can survive.
If W 156 at F8 ... than B157 at F10 ... white has to pull out the stone at F8 now ...W158 at E9 ... B159 at F11 ... white is forced now to play at G13 ! ... then black atari at E12 ... white F13...
black E13 ... BUT for a while i missed the move white F14 ... if white plays there, black has no longer a way to survive.

Some Funny Fast Games

2011-10-23T17:58:00.000-07:00

Here are some fast games ... i play them to learn, to have fun, and to make mistakes ... not taking them too serious ...
All games here were played with: 5min 2x40 seconds Byo-Yomi

In this game i was happy to kill whites group at the lower left in Yose (endgame) ... but that was not enough to win the game.

Replaying A Pro Game

2011-10-21T12:28:00.000-07:00

I just replayed the following game at GoGameWorld.com ... with a lot of interesting comments by Kim Jisuk 7p.
Of course i don`t want to violate any copyright, so i`m sharing it without the commentary...
By the way, it is very sad that GoGameWorld.com seems to have some troubles and will not exists any longer the way we know it...
On the website it says:
"Important Notice on Oct. 4th: Due to personal matters, we are not able to maintain this site on regular basis, and we may close this site in a year, but we will try to continue adding games for a couple of months. In the meantime, we are looking for a new owner, if you or somebody you know is interested to continue or make any kind of deal, please contact us at tianbi@gogameworld.com. Thank your support for all these years!"
Anyway... it was a very interesting game for me to replay ... a lot of things were wondering me... for example:
1. How could white allow black to kill his group following black-31 ... i would never think that this situation is kind of equal ... i would have bet a lot of money on black! :-) But following the commentary white did not make a mistake so far.
2. Black-39 was very surprising for me ... i think i would have played a silly invasion at the bottom or a extension on the 4 line on the top or the upper right side ... i think this move is a good inspiration ...
3. In the end it was a half point game!!? Without the commentary and without counting i would have been sure that black has a huge lead...
"The final game 3 of 3rd World BC Card Cup was held on 4/26, as a result Lee Sedol 9p overturned the situation in the end and edged over Gu Li 9p by half point, taking 2:1 lead in best-of-5 final. " GoGameWorld News Section

In the next game i let my upper left corner die ...
I started to distinguish between "serious" and "just for fun" games to avoid these kind of mistakes... but somehow even if i decide to play a "serious" game ... i`m not always able to concentrate the way i could do.
After i realized that the corner is dead, i should have resigned ... but instead i started to play very fast until i lost another group.
A big mistake was B63 ... if i would have played at W64, the cut would not have worked.

(I was black)

The last game is a good example for a situation in which you are so obsessed with the idead of killing a group that you finally loose track of getting enough territory.
The group was not that big at all!
Interesting is Black167 ... it was a big mistake ... if Black would have played 167 at E14 ... he would kill some stones with a snapback ... and Black would have had a serious chance to win!

(I was black, and it was a even game against a Kgs 3 Kyu)

I found this very cool video at Vimeo ... it is interesting to see some pictures from Seoul AND there is a short but nice "Go part" as well...

Game Review No. 5 + 6

2011-10-14T14:44:00.000-07:00

Here are two games i played recently ... i tried to make the first game a "serious" one but i was very unconcentrated and made quite obvious mistakes ... of course i do a lot of mistakes even if i`m fully concentrated ... but some kind of mistakes can be called "blunders" others can`t.

In the second game there are more mistakes which are typical for me ... they have to do something with my personal level of understanding the game.

Both time i was white and lost by resign.

Game Review No. 3 + 4

2011-10-10T13:03:00.000-07:00

I`m really doing what i decided recently ... i play a lot of fast games without regretting bad moves ... just for fun ... and long games... but if i play a long game, i`m most of the time quite concentrated... and i`m posting every long game here with some comments about it.

I really enjoy this way of playing ... sometimes serious ... sometimes just for fun. ;-)

Here 2 games played at WBaduk - with some comments ... both times i took white and won by resignation.

Game Review No. 2

2011-10-03T16:18:00.000-07:00

I just played this game about 1 hour ago ... some comments are included in the file.

I think i made two essential mistakes:
1. Capturing much too slow, and unnecessary with Black89, B91, and B93
– this was ridiculous.
2. Black 157 is a good example for my problem,
which is to - sometimes - refuse thinking in essential moments.
