This video was great. I recently got back into playing and very much enjoy going over games. Having you go through them and show some different possibilities really helped in understanding. Great Job!! Hope to watch so more.
Very nice walkthrough. It's really helpful for us learning the finer points of Go. Thanks for taking the time to do these videos. It's very much appreciated.
you won.t understand of move until knows basic move how to survive and fight. play more and learn from mistake to go up ladder lanking. maybe 5k start have more fun. I am a 2d .
Would definitely love to see more videos in this format! Especially on studying pro games! I've been studying pro games from the start(like literally 30kyu) up till now(7kyu) and I find there is something helpful about it regardless of strength! Please keep up the awesome work!
Loved this video. I would really like to see a series on this. Hard to find commentary on professional games I can understand because generally the commentators speak on a higher assumed level of the viewers than I have. Also hard to find commentary on professional games i can understand without subtitles ;). This video satisfied both of my biggest problems! Please continue!
Hmmm probably not for 15kyu, though i have heard of having some people walk through pro games just to get a feel for proper direciton, even if they dont understand it. I would just focus on playing and reading eyes, liberties, large points, not following opponent around the board at that level, though.
Fuseki, joseki are my friends , and framework is my cause. I will travel across the board, fighting near and faaaarrr! attack weak stones for benefit,-- as I move up to DAAAAANNNN!!!! Basics are my best friend, you teach me and I teach you "badduk mooooonnn!!!"
I first watched this lecture a 2 years back when I was still 5 kyu, and it felt hard to understand. Now watching it as a 2D, I could follow along Batt's variations and reading, and it was really insightful! Great lecture!
I really enjoyed this and was playing along with you (lol my Go board looks exactly like yours!) - but one thing is you took the time to try an explain the basic concepts, which is great, at the beginning and got rushed towards the end. Other than that (and yes, I am KGS member but nowhere near your skill) - great video and quite helpful. More analysis is always appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
finally on a real board!. Decent setup. Hearing the board is great. Don't worry for putting exactly the stones in place. I'm missing some tips to the close fighting moves. probably the last ones. Good review . Waiting for the series.
Thank you for sharing. Your presentation was enjoyable to watch and it helped to know that you also did not review the game before. You made it appear very easy and enjoyable. I made some notes where you stress the importance of sente and what you can do. It was interesting to see how it seemed rather sudden (at the end of the game) that White was behind. The most confusing part was the end of the game. I wondered if the Black group on the upper edge was still alive if White could make enough liberties for himself and why Black did not take the Ko and smash White. I was also confused about the number of points each player had. But after staring at the board for a couple of minutes, I convinced myself that Black won by a large margin and that White was just grasping at straws.
why has it taken me this long to find your channel!? amazingly helpful video (one of many by you actually) I look forward to more awesome content and going through your older videos. +1 sub!
Really awesome video. One of my favorites that you've done. I'm only 7k now, so not quite strong enough to get a lot out of reviewing games myself, but watching you review them is gold. Thanks!
all this time trying to undesrtand all the talk about a pro game... i actually found one.. thx man.... u clearly explain ths game to me.. keep up ur good work... i'm still learning tho... peace...
Typical Bat >.> playing 2 black moves in a row at the end. Also, it feels like you don't sacrifice enough. The feeling of the crap-ton of aji in the big sac, the feeling of having so much power, is just beautiful. That aji gave Lee Changho so much sente that it becomes extremely easy to read out anything and make the game simple (at a dan level). Sometimes, you think the darnedest things, but you cater to your audience, most of whom are kyute and would run it out. It's beautiful.
I'm a chessplayer and have absoluuuuuutely no clue what's GOing on here ... But I got interested! ;O) You guyz may have heard all the bad jokes ... but they are new to me ... so: I'll have a GO at it !!! (hihihihahahoho ... okay, Stefan ... you can stop laughing now ...)
Please do much more, even vintage games would be perfect because you can compare and contrasts modern vs vintage tendencies and motivations. Very nice game review tho.
Very nice explanation, it was easy enough to follow although in the end it went slightly too fast for me, but that is what the pause button is for. I am still too much of beginner to understand everything, but I definitely learned something. Keep these videos coming. :-D
I liked this very very much I feel like this helped a whole lot! Please continue this as a Series even if its not as easy to set up, thx for the effort bat!
nice explanation there! hope you will make more of it. I really like the way you explain in the beginning part of this video where you explain about the point of some moves.. like this is small as this gives us around 9 points and stuffs, this move is not going to work coz of this and that.. it really helps a lot in understanding the game. great job!
Nice change of video präsentation^^ and it was good to follow. i started to watch this video and couldnt stop. i like how you present your way of thinking during a game and on which points!!! i think a second video like this would be interesting!
Wow! That video was useful. It's actually the best review I ever saw online in terms of easy and helpful explanations! And fun too! I really hope you make it a series! ^_^
Yeah, like the real board. I'd really like to see a game you lose, and then the week after and analysis of it and why you think you lost. this would help me analyse my own fails and look for ways to improve, cheers.
I enjoyed this am only 14kyu but I can see the potential in a pro game series even if your only a ddk you can still look for good shape and see how pros handle ko fights and life and death.
I (12k?) definitely enjoyed this video and I encourage you to do a series in this format. (Although I like all the go videos you do, so whatever. The citybuilding game videos don't do it for me so much. :-)
This Video happened before AlphaGo, thats the jumping point. The Differenz between baduk and Risiko is, that in Risiko there is always the possibility to get your ground destroyed. There are no safety eyes as in iGo!
Hey man, that Ko fight was pretty much over once white had no chance of either taking the black group, securing the west side and invading black's north territory, and cutting off the large black group at 10-9 like you mentioned. Because white's 3 stones are dead in the south, there's no way for white to kill it even if he won the KO. In my opinion it was kind of surprising that white didn't resign after he couldn't fight for the large group because he seemed behind in points most of the time
Nice video! Hope to see more of these on the real board. :) By the way, even without the exchange in the top right (from camera perspective), the ladder starting from the left side fight was good for black.
While watching your video, I was understanding everything in the game. I said to myself:" Boy, am I smart!" But at the moment your explanations stopped, it was back to my former not so bright self. Bonjour la désillusion. Anyway, thank you.
If you mean the game that Shikamaru plays, that's Shogi, which is very very different. I don't know if Go came up in the series at a later point. I've seen up to ep 200 or so.
Thank you very much for this video! I recently bought "Invincible" and wondered how to study the games. As I started, I just searched the kifu for the next number and placed it on the board, pausing every few moves to look at the board and trying to understand. But I kind of didn't ask myself what would be the next move. Maybe because I think too lowly (?) of my skills and that I wouldn't guess right anyway... So I just kept putting the stones in order, waiting for the next comment in the book to come. But, oh well, didn't help me, because I wasn't paying attention to the GAME, but only to the NUMBERS in the book... Not effective. I guess I have to try it your way :D
It seemed to me that you looked at this game primarily from black's perspective. Do you usually review games from one player's perspective? Also, absolutely loved this. If you wanted to stream with your webcam for your semi-weekly lessons, I would not complain at all ;)
Could be a beginner thing. If the game is very territorial then you may wind up fighting over everything which can clutter the board up quite a bit. However,if you're always playing just next to each others stones...and not seeing the larger part of the board, definitely beginner thing.
Excellent game review dwyrin! I really like it alot, and I would really enjoy more reviews from you on a real board. One question: Where do you find your pro games to go review? If you want you could perhaps also review some classic games e.g. Shusaku etc. Would be great to hear your thoughts on such games.
Thank you for this! Please don't stop making these videos. It's awesome to have english speaking go teachers. One question tho, Why the profound hate for Kos?
Josh excellent video, I have a question and maybe an Idea for a set of videos, how to study openings and josekys, I want to learn how to play more with and against orthodox, kobayashi, sanrensei, and the rest, and discover why some things are considered good, risky or bad, like the 2 points long knight extension from the 4/4 point that we always play only one point small knight. I hope you understand my doubt after all this paragraph.
Great video, would love to see a series on a goban. One comment: It'd be helpful if you could flip the video so that we see the board from your perspective. Thanks!
Well done! Some very thoughtful commentary there, although I personally would have to slow down a little over the ko battle. :-) What's your current ranking?
Hey bat, in the fuseki, why did you suggest the one space encloser in the top right corner instead of the knight one? isn't enclosing high bad, because b can take the middle top first and because of his corner on the top left make it a fair framework?
Are there any programs that print game moves in list form rather than diagram form? I'd like to start reviewing games on a real board, but I think the diagrams would spoil the moves.
at 49:15 I don't see black's move as a connection. White can just cut through that elephant's eye and black's further cut would do nothing as white had 2 ways to connect. I mean, in that position b could still do nasty things to w, but nothing more than he could do immediately after white's hane. So why doesn't white cut that thing or why did he hane in the first place?
I just tried rotating it 180 degrees and it looks really odd because of the perspective. I'd rather look at it the way it is. Not much of a hassle to figure out what you mean by "right side" or "left side".
During the End game and around 53 minutes into the video instead of B (18,7) wouldn't a stronger move be B (13,7) putting W (13-6) in an atari and potentially threatening White by possibly making use of B (15,6)?
I find it weird that black actually responded to D14 by playing E15 at 8:13 . The atari is not severe on either side. Wouldn't a pincer somewhere around D10 be much more vital? I think white would be very bad. I don't get it. Also, if white invaded 3-3 at the 10:26 position I think black would play E4 instead of B3 then if white E3 just B4 and follow joseki. Black can end in sente without any real big weakness and attack white with a double pincer. Not criticizing just asking. Its interesting ^^
In your research have you encountered any games which had one player completely destroyed who, through some freak series of serendipitous moves, managed to win? Could you feature a couple of those? Also, have you done the Hiroshima Bomb game? It would be nice to see that one narrated as well.
I have only been playing for a few months, so this might be a dumb question, but couldn't white have taken the large black group at 10-9? I tried to do a play through and it seemed like he could have captured. I'm not sure if that would have been enough to win, but it would have made the game much closer if he could.
That's funny, I thought white had the advantage all through the beginning and a bit of the middle, but then black just came out of nowhere and won! Funny how Go works
I don't know where to comment but the two last moves of the game are played by black. In fact I have no Idea wath can be big enough to avoid White from winning the ko and therefore the game....can you help me?
Is there anyway you can make a playlist of all of your videos in this series? Or a go section in your channel? You have a lot of things to comb through to find these.
interesting instruction, it is hard to learn since I know as a beginner that once the pieces are place they are not supposed to be pick up. that is confusing...
Once you've picked up the basics you should be able to follow along a bit better. And this real board series that I am doing this month is filled with tips for beginners to follow along the game with!
dwyrin thanks dude, speaking of dudes, theduda2 never replied to my msgs. mayby he thinks I am bit serious about learning. So do you ever use go of the world? Or that online go site I think you suggested. I go by Pauley on both.
That's what I was thinking. I only understand Go on the most very basic of levels, I've been doing Tsumego puzzles for about 3 days and am still trying to wrap my head around the logic behind Go strategy.
tsumego is less important for beginners the only tsumego beginners need to know about is two eyes, it is better to learn about haengenma and joseki first as it gives a deeper understanding of scoring points

This video was great. I recently got back into playing and very much enjoy going over games. Having you go through them and show some different possibilities really helped in understanding. Great Job!! Hope to watch so more.
Landen Gelwicks Nice! Good luck with with the game!
Very nice walkthrough. It's really helpful for us learning the finer points of Go. Thanks for taking the time to do these videos. It's very much appreciated.
I first heard of Go from Hikaru no Go, great game.
Me too, but where do you get a go board?
+Thomas Rivaldi Amazon
Christian Jeffress same I learned the basics now but when I see pros playing I can't understand each stone 😂😂
you won.t understand of move until knows basic move how to survive and fight. play more and learn from mistake to go up ladder lanking. maybe 5k start have more fun. I am a 2d .

I recently just started playing this game, and all I can say is:
I wanna be the very best, that no one ever was.
EIectricEmotions You should get there in about 66 years, give or take a decade. 😀
lol yeah everyone does
EIectricEmotions are you any good after 4 years
Fuseki, joseki are my friends , and framework is my cause. I will travel across the board, fighting near and faaaarrr! attack weak stones for benefit,-- as I move up to DAAAAANNNN!!!!
Basics are my best friend, you teach me and I teach you "badduk mooooonnn!!!"
I first watched this lecture a 2 years back when I was still 5 kyu, and it felt hard to understand. Now watching it as a 2D, I could follow along Batt's variations and reading, and it was really insightful! Great lecture!
You are a tad more skilled then you let on and flippin' adorable! XD High five for a great video and hope to see you on KGS

Your lectures are really valuable dude!!!!
Glad you like them! ive recently purchased a better camera to get back into creating these
Perfect! I am looking forward to it.
finally on a real board!. Decent setup. Hearing the board is great. Don't worry for putting exactly the stones in place.
I'm missing some tips to the close fighting moves. probably the last ones.
Good review . Waiting for the series.
Great commentary, very useful and clear ! For a noob in go like me, this is gold !
Thanks a lot, and keep on rocking at Go ! :D
i like this format a lot. for me, it's easier and more fun to follow a review on a real board.
Ha! He's alive, and has hands! Love to hear those stones clickin' :-) nice to see/hear amidst all that digital go
Love the potential for a series here. Studying pro games is something I was just about getting ready to start doing seriously.
Really liked the video, I've been struggling to become more than a newbie player and these kind of videos are very helpful!
Hope they help, serenity!
Awesome video (hopefully series)!!! The board is definitely easier to follow. Thanks
Wonderful video, thanks for posting! I always enjoy your commentary, but seeing it on a real board with clear audio is quite the treat.

Yes and the idea of a series on "How to Study Games" is really appealing to me.

MegaMarty99 Glad you found me! Enjoy the channel~
I have watched many professional GO study games, and so far yours is the easiest to understand. thank you
Really awesome video. One of my favorites that you've done. I'm only 7k now, so not quite strong enough to get a lot out of reviewing games myself, but watching you review them is gold. Thanks!

I'm a chessplayer and have absoluuuuuutely no clue what's GOing on here ...
But I got interested! ;O)
You guyz may have heard all the bad jokes ... but they are new to me ... so:
I'll have a GO at it !!!
(hihihihahahoho ... okay, Stefan ... you can stop laughing now ...)
you put more stone to surround opponet stone . in end more space win the game. need lots of thinking and stragedy.
go to tygem get the membership free to play from 18k lowest lank.
18k is the lowest rank.. i know people who have been playing for 3 years and only just got to 19k lol
Please do much more, even vintage games would be perfect because you can compare and contrasts modern vs vintage tendencies and motivations. Very nice game review tho.
Thanks I've been looking every where for material like this thank you for making this video, it helps a lot !
I really appreciate all of your guidance! It is invaluable in my progression while playing this beautiful game :D
The game was so simple up until somewhere near 45:00 when the whole board started being a huge battlefield of headaches x_x
Very nice explanation, it was easy enough to follow although in the end it went slightly too fast for me, but that is what the pause button is for.
I am still too much of beginner to understand everything, but I definitely learned something. Keep these videos coming. :-D

Cause i forgot to show that white took the ko and black pushes through thus forcing white to resign the game.
What a wonderful way to start the year, seeing a "live" video from dwyrin :D
I really enjoyed this format and hope to see many more like it.
I enjoyed this am only 14kyu but I can see the potential in a pro game series even if your only a ddk you can still look for good shape and see how pros handle ko fights and life and death.
Wow!! I really love the board setup! I have to say I really enjoy it more this way. Really nice!
I (12k?) definitely enjoyed this video and I encourage you to do a series in this format. (Although I like all the go videos you do, so whatever. The citybuilding game videos don't do it for me so much. :-)
Thank you! I shared this with my Go Club in Arizona
This Video happened before AlphaGo, thats the jumping point. The Differenz between baduk and Risiko is, that in Risiko there is always the possibility to get your ground destroyed. There are no safety eyes as in iGo!

on my channel you can view my playlists containing these. my lists of playlists should be close to the bottom.
Pretty nice commentary, thank you very much for that :)
Pro games are sometimes so tricky to study...
Nice video! Hope to see more of these on the real board. :)
By the way, even without the exchange in the top right (from camera perspective), the ladder starting from the left side fight was good for black.

If you mean the game that Shikamaru plays, that's Shogi, which is very very different. I don't know if Go came up in the series at a later point. I've seen up to ep 200 or so.
Great choice for the game! Keep them coming.

He's blind but manages to play go through his super power of echo location.
Thank you for this! Please don't stop making these videos. It's awesome to have english speaking go teachers.
One question tho, Why the profound hate for Kos?
Very helpful! Please make more like this
Just keep going, what you do is amazing.
Josh excellent video, I have a question and maybe an Idea for a set of videos, how to study openings and josekys, I want to learn how to play more with and against orthodox, kobayashi, sanrensei, and the rest, and discover why some things are considered good, risky or bad, like the 2 points long knight extension from the 4/4 point that we always play only one point small knight. I hope you understand my doubt after all this paragraph.
Great video, would love to see a series on a goban. One comment: It'd be helpful if you could flip the video so that we see the board from your perspective. Thanks!
best lecture for a while..thx
you can try gokifu.com, updated every day (and classics too)
"don't ask how I set this up..."
lol, immediately thought duct tape
Well done! Some very thoughtful commentary there, although I personally would have to slow down a little over the ko battle. :-) What's your current ranking?
Look further into the game. White does try to play the elephant eye
Bat , thanks for showing this vid.
You make Go seem so simple :)
Hey bat, in the fuseki, why did you suggest the one space encloser in the top right corner instead of the knight one? isn't enclosing high bad, because b can take the middle top first and because of his corner on the top left make it a fair framework?
i noticed that 2 but it didn't really matter with white resigning what extra stone white had
Are there any programs that print game moves in list form rather than diagram form? I'd like to start reviewing games on a real board, but I think the diagrams would spoil the moves.
Might want to check Hikaru no Go. That's how I got to know the game, and it's a wonderful Anime/Manga.
at 49:15 I don't see black's move as a connection. White can just cut through that elephant's eye and black's further cut would do nothing as white had 2 ways to connect. I mean, in that position b could still do nasty things to w, but nothing more than he could do immediately after white's hane.

Excellent video.
La comunidad latina agradecería mucho que éstos vídeos tan pedagógicos sean editados en ESPAñOL.
So intriguing!
it was awesome. Please more!!!
During the End game and around 53 minutes into the video instead of B (18,7) wouldn't a stronger move be B (13,7) putting W (13-6) in an atari and potentially threatening White by possibly making use of B (15,6)?

fasinating this is the best breakdown of a match I've ever seen
excellent lecture once again :)
Thank you for this video! I liked it very much!
I have only been playing for a few months, so this might be a dumb question, but couldn't white have taken the large black group at 10-9? I tried to do a play through and it seemed like he could have captured. I'm not sure if that would have been enough to win, but it would have made the game much closer if he could.
I loved the video. Why did black get two moves in the end? The last two moves were black, it seems to me...
at 26:57 black doesn't need that exchange for the ladder to work
That's funny, I thought white had the advantage all through the beginning and a bit of the middle, but then black just came out of nowhere and won! Funny how Go works
I like the board view batt! =)
Thank you for this great video!
I don't know where to comment but the two last moves of the game are played by black. In fact I have no Idea wath can be big enough to avoid White from winning the ko and therefore the game....can you help me?
Glad to hear~
Is there anyway you can make a playlist of all of your videos in this series? Or a go section in your channel? You have a lot of things to comb through to find these.
don't you like to be able to save variation on a client rather than real board?
Thank you. Now i have an idea how to go over prefessional game:) (Like when to think - when on has sente ...)
interesting instruction, it is hard to learn since I know as a beginner that once the pieces are place they are not supposed to be pick up. that is confusing...
Once you've picked up the basics you should be able to follow along a bit better. And this real board series that I am doing this month is filled with tips for beginners to follow along the game with!
dwyrin. I have won 6 games to 3, does that count...
dwyrin thanks dude, speaking of dudes, theduda2 never replied to my msgs. mayby he thinks I am bit serious about learning. So do you ever use go of the world? Or that online go site I think you suggested. I go by Pauley on both.
thank you so much for this. u really are my hero!
Great lesson. What kind of stones are you using? They just sound great!

Thanks. Could you give me a link to the place I can buy a board like this?
Clear. Thanks bro.
I'd resign too if Black got two moves in a row at 54:50...
actually it would mean, that black loses instantly ;)

That's what I was thinking. I only understand Go on the most very basic of levels, I've been doing Tsumego puzzles for about 3 days and am still trying to wrap my head around the logic behind Go strategy.
tsumego is less important for beginners the only tsumego beginners need to know about is two eyes, it is better to learn about haengenma and joseki first as it gives a deeper understanding of scoring points
