Thank u for this video. I stopped playing go for a while and lost some of my fighting skills so this helped a lot. I played some games and it went well.
Maybe I missed it, but with the cross-cut sequence beginning around the 21 minute mark, why shouldn't black extend to 3-18 instead of 2-17? Or is that a reasonable play too?
Hi! I just started playing go today, and my friend directed me to your channel (keep up the good work btw). Are there any particular order I should watch these lectures? or which video should I start with?
As someone who's seen all his videos I think you could manage by just watching them from oldest to the newest. MAYBE watch the game reviews after a dozen or so educational videos, might get more out of them then. "Where to play in the Opening" is a good video to start from though, as are all videos about opening
Both moves (3-18 and 2-17) are symmetric in reference to the diagonal. So they're the same - one like a mirror image of another. However, were the board different and one side would be more important than the other, then you should read out the outcome of the cut and extension and evaluate where you would become stronger afterwards - then play either 3-18 of 2-17 accordingly, because then the board would no longer be symmetric.
I see that I guys can see if a group can make an eye even if the group is only three stones. I understand the rule of what is an eye. But what's a good video into watch to develop eyes or reading out making an eye for a small group
literally forgot all the fundamentals, and just fight all the time. I notice I play aggressively 100% of the time, and that works out well against sdk but not higher ranked players. I played a 2d rated bot and lost extremely badly somewhere north of 60 points. Played more standard joseki and balanced. Still lost but somewhere around 40 points, often getting closer to 30. One game almost beat the damn thing. So yeah getting back to basics is very useful
If black atari at 9-3, white extends and threathen 2 black stones on the left. And if black goes to save those 2 stones, then white will make double atari at 9-4
30 min++ Low Chinese Fuseki, no matter what, B advantage in that fight. W may live on the corner but what B get in return, is much much more. I just think that you should point out that.

Nick expertly parries goofy questions from his class 101
By far the most helpful Go video I've seen
my body was ready for 2hour fighting, now Im sad :(
Shut up Dan!
"Squeezing the tube of toothpaste all over yourself" was an EXCELLENT image! And funny too.
Absolutely fantastic content!
Perhaps Nick will be the one to play the divine move
Lmao
Are the last 50 minutes supposed to be black?
I'm sure it's not. It should be truncated.

Just curious. What's Dan's ~ rating?

These are fantastic, Nick
Lol. The belly tickler. Glad to know the channel.
as a 3k i didn't know it worked, i couldn't see the solution
"You are disadvantaged." Hahaha 😂
Pretty good video. I need to win more fights.
wow! good to have these videos back again :)

Shut up nerd
something happens at 1;00 the video turns black.
yay, welcome back Nick!
I can't help but to sing along the intro and smile like an idiot =)

Solve tons of Tsumego, for instance on goproblems.com or similar :)

is there a reason the 2nd 1/2 of this is just a black screen or is that some kind of error on my end.
I thought it was just me
I like the name of this video.
thanks
53:00 why is this an option? Black can easily atari at 9-3. I don't see how 10-3 ends up well for white

The board is on a weird angle, it's a bit distracting. Great lecture though.
This video goes black after 1:02, but still useful. My fighting game sucks lol
24:38 White should play 16-5 to put Black 16-4 stone in a ladder.
+BrothChiler Never mind! Black 15-5 atari :)
