DDK Travails 2
Next up there is a Benko league game versus Igoru, a fellow 15k. The three travails, or mistakes I want to not replicate are essentially all corner based and all, in this game, offensive against white corners. Situation One. Move 35 I had a secureish bottom and white was trying to surround so I decided to push thinking White may block allowing me to get some stones out into the left. White though didn't block but pushed out at D6. I pushed in considering the wrap around would still leave me connected and cut immediately at B4, white connected at D4 which cut the liberties of my 2 stones so I connected allowing White to connect solidly at B6. I dropped to B2 and white then played the AI move of C2, nice reading. Mine was not as good and I next played E2. After post study the correct move was to drop again to B2 giving my little stick 5 liberties versus whites 4 even if connection is made. So it is just a liberty fight really and White's best result is to sacrifice and push in to...
