A correction is needed for first problem: B and E are equally the same value since after white plays E, white's corner points are reduced so actually it is the same value as just playing at B. I'm sorry for making you confused :( just play at B easily :D
Hello Yeonwoo, ur content is so good. Im abt 1dan and i cant create a good example and explaination like you. So if u dont mind, i'd like to use ur sgf and explaination to make a vietnamese lecture.
You need a section for absolute beginners cos that way you can gain much more views. I`m not an absolute beginners but I have accidentally seen such a video with more than 1 mln views!
I would definitely like to see more videos like this. Very helpful. Something similar with general direction of play problems would also be nice. Thank you for making all your English language videos. :-)
Thank you very much Yeonwoo and greetings from France ! Very nice last problem, I instincly felt what was the good white answer, but I would never think of playing it directly if i were black, instead of the hane on first line !😮
Love this, thank you Yeonwoo! My style is to play very solid, gain advantage from direction of play, then win with strong endgame so these skills are important for me to learn :)
I had no idea. How many games have i lost due to poor endgame? I have "good" opening, average/bad middle game, and bad endgame. Thanks for that nice video.
Endgame problems are so useful and insightful, they cannot be really compared to anything. And it is very hard to train on them, as you don’t know what is good enough, like with life and death. So please, please, please, I would like to see as many of these endgame problems as possible, to develop the skill, the intuition, that there is more than the “ordinary” (here also the bad) move. By the way, even in the middle game, and even the opening, these point issues may come in, like, I can connect in two different ways, they look similar, but the one is a point better than the other one. It may be worth while seeing these examples too. But the endgame should be paramount in the videos you might like to show. Thank you!
E reduced black more, but white also lost points on the right side. If white plays B, she gets 2 points more than the result in E. After white B, white diagonal play on the first line is also sente before white plays Tenuki.
Yeah, I don't quite understand this example. Both black and white get exactly two points less in the complicated variation. Seems that the point balance is the same for B and E.
4:43 But surely white is not going to stop there, will it? Why not close that gap on 15, forcing black to connect on 14, so black now gets only 2 points?
it is still ko if white answers at 2-19. but seems like worse since white will need to win 1more ko fight against other variation. I might be wrong though since i counted on my mind and i am a mere 8kyu, but it is bad for white anyway
White pushes in between and it still is ko. But a better ko for white because black has to throw in this time in the corner first. If black blocks as in the variation in the video, white ataris the two black stones and wins the race without ko.
But white losses two points in the "best" variation on the first problem. So it is not better than just taking sete and giving black 5 points. It's the same, or am I missing something
@@KaninTuzi The only difference is white is left with the atari in sente in the center, likely that equates to a 2 point gote. But yes on the edge the points are equal.
Hi, thanks, nice video as always: one minor remark anyway it seems that in the first example, D and E both are sente for W, and give exactly the same result in term of points if you note the 2 points lost by W in the corner in E. The only small detail which seems to favor E versus D is that in E, W can block center in sente for sure, whereas in D black has the option to push in the center and perhaps create some weakness there, rather than atari on the first line. Is this the correct reason to favor E?
E has a two point gote continuation in capturing the two black stones (black cant connect after atari because of a shortage of liberties), so E is at least one point better than D.
At ruclips.net/video/8SmGTsjfqNc/видео.html#t=12m19s you count in native, isn't it? I have few questions marginally about baduk: I was wondering if the countdown in go games is always in native (can it be in sino-numerals) and if it is always increasing (from one to ten). Btw you count super fast; are you counting pairs of point?
I really like your videos but i must admit as a 15 kyu player the variations are way to much for me to remember. I´m looking forward to the time i can follow your explanations properly. Keep up the good work :)

I like how you show excitement in the videos. Gets me energized to play Baduk
12:21 "Sorry... I spoke Korean because it is so much faster" and then the spitting image of "troll face"
Thanks you for these videos it’s so cool to have videos from an Korean pro.
Glad to see you in great shape 👋
Thank you so much Yeonwoo! That was your best video so far! I hope you will do many more endgame studies.
Thank you! Finally someone showing the endgame some love :) Please do more!
Thank you for these examples. I hope you can show more in the future.
Really great lessson. Yose is so hard, to keep concentrating on small points. #2 was especially helpful, because it seems common even in my DDK games.
Good endgame examples. Good solving practice... More, yes please! :))
Later compile into an e-book?
Gracias! Por tu tiempo, son muy útiles tus videos.
Thank you very much Yeonwoo and greetings from France !
Very nice last problem, I instincly felt what was the good white answer, but I would never think of playing it directly if i were black, instead of the hane on first line !😮

video. Greetings from France.
Finally someone can teach what dwyrin can't :D
Gustav lol. Dwyrin always hates endgame.

thanks for the video ;-) can you make a video to explain the bent four?
4:43 But surely white is not going to stop there, will it? Why not close that gap on 15, forcing black to connect on 14, so black now gets only 2 points?
Thanks for the real examples, very useful!
Can you also show how to count the size of endgame move? What method do you use (I heard of several)? Or maybe you just read until the end of game? :)
LOVED IT !!! Ippuda. More juseyo
Thanks Yeonwoo! I desperately need videos like this. My endgame is 💩
Thank you for the endgame problems. And thank you for making me laugh. You are hilarious!
4:43 The point at 14 is not a point, that's two points. We forgive you :-) And thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge and passion with everyone !
She is counting the stone that black captured, so it's 3 points.
black captured a stone there
That confused me at first too, but then I realized she is talking about the captured stone that was there. So technically it is 3 points haha.
The third point is the capture
I love it and it helped a lot. (I'm an SDK player).
Very nice, thank you.
12:40 If black plays at 22 point, then black can win unconditional?
it is still ko if white answers at 2-19. but seems like worse since white will need to win 1more ko fight against other variation. I might be wrong though since i counted on my mind and i am a mere 8kyu, but it is bad for white anyway
White pushes in between and it still is ko. But a better ko for white because black has to throw in this time in the corner first. If black blocks as in the variation in the video, white ataris the two black stones and wins the race without ko.
Loved this! More endgame videos, please :)
Finally some endgame content :-D Thanks for that !
I think I would play B in the first example, cause I don't trust myself to correctly read out E, D or C
But white losses two points in the "best" variation on the first problem. So it is not better than just taking sete and giving black 5 points. It's the same, or am I missing something
I think you are right, bro

More yose, please.
great stuff
Thank you very much for the tips for Yeonwoo, greetings from Mexico, hopefully soon you will come to Latin America :)
Yeonwoo is the ultimate waifu!
go is terrifying.

Why don't you teach us some Korean? I'd like that.
