Hi Nick, you should bring a laser pointer in for your class. When your students suggest a move, they could point instead of fumbling around with the board coordinates. As long as your class isn't too large, one laser pointer could just be handed back and forth.
Hey Nick, I've already learned a lot from your videos! Big Thanks! The one thing I struggle with, however, and the one thing that is rarely explained in go videos is how to make eyes. You need a base to live, but how to efficiently turn that base into a living group? Are there joseki specifically for that purpose you could teach? Is there a possibility for future lectures that show how to make eyes at the border and how to make eyes in the middle of the board? Greetings from Germany
@@danfelder8062 I asked a couple of people and nobody could answer. I guess the reason there are no videos titled "10 steps to making eyes" is because there is no simple steps, no simple rules you can follow.
I think there are a set amount of points that can make a viable eye. 3, 4,5,7. So imo you would try to set that up while keeping an eye on the keypoints of your shape. I am a beginner, but this is how i try to understand making shapes. If i am incorrect, please correct me. Thank you!
Hey Nick, great lecture. I have a question about the 10-5 reduction. If W has facing mukaku, and a stone on the 10-3 point in the middle, is it still useful for B to play on the 10-5? Since a 3-3 invasion isn't possible after W plays 8-4. Thanks again for the upload.
40:50 "Stone kills you"? Really? I don't think so - what if white hanes? Then black hanes, white protects and black needs an extra move to fix the outside, because of the cuts. White will then kill the two black stones in the corner. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Please see my variants in the SGF file: artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~ttel5535/pub/go/NickSibicky48_invasions-stone_kills_you-really.sgf
Or his students could use terms like 'small jump' or 'kick' or 'pincer', etc. But I like the laser pointer idea, I wonder how difficult it would be to use it accurately though.
i wonder if I could requet a game review of shuei one day? I greatly enjoy the videos and theyre my main way to learn about go, and this honinbo was my favorite but his game records are rare :s anyway thanks for the videos, theyre all very helpful! ^^
All this confusion with the numbers... They're written on the board! If you can't read the kanji... It's literally 10 characters, come on. I guess that explains why you put those ugly strips over it later on. Ah well. (Yes, I'm complaining about a super minor thing. It's just been peeving me a bit :P)
Truly immortal videos that are relevant forever. Thank you for your time and effort, Nick!

I'm looking for this info too. Did you ever find it? It's been 6 years. :)

@@Jan.Feldmann Nick’s lesson 88 on shapes is probably the one you want!

Good lecture, thx for sharing.
could you do some game reviews like you have done in the first couple of videos a year ago or so? thx
(haha nice damage control at 18:14)
