Bristol Go Club this week

Bob was kind enough to give me two teaching games, one even and one with 9 stones. Richard also offered some valuable advice about never leaving weak groups in favour of territory.

I lost a large group in the second game when I took my eye off the ball for (it seemed) a few seconds, but thought I was still leading in terms of territory, I had a long diagonal central section. But when the game was rearranged for scoring, it was 90 to 40 (or something) against me. Very surprising.

I then watched Paul A beat Paul C on 4 stones. Paul A plays very quickly 'without thinking'. You can too. You just need about 40 years of experience first.

6 members turned up this week.
