I'm a long time chess player just learning Go now at age 23. This game is incredible! It hits a lot of the same spots as chess, in that it is incredibly deep and has emergent play, definitely even more so than chess.
Awesome job here! Just a minor detail, but would you mind doing somekind of lowpass on the soundtrack? I got really distracted by some really high pitched constant whirring there :( Thanks for the series!
DAAAAAAAAAMN you Sibicky! I was going to play some video games but now I must remain and enrich myself by watching this insightful and well produced video. :)
I'm a little confused. I've always heard that tiger's mouth was a good shape, and I've always seen it referring to a single set of three stones. What you've demonstrated as bad shape here looks like two tiger's mouths that share a stone. Could you elaborate on why a single tiger's mouth would be bad? It looks like you're making one at 53:16 at the top
Amazing videos.. I think You just made me want to learn lot more about this game again !!! cause I was pretty depressed cause I kept on loosing alot.. thank you so much !!!
+BrothChiler it is black right then, but I figured out why not anyway - you double atari and then white takes at 18-7 and you lose both atari. You'd have to take 2 more moves to atari those stones to get the snap back and I think you're left with a ko, but white won't even let all that happen anyway.
+Jamie Clark At 37:00 black had just played an extension at 18-8 (counting from the bottom, it's actually 18-13). That makes it White to play. And, if it were Black's move in this instance, and black played double atari, White cannot take anything at 18-7, White can't even put a stone in atari from this position.
+BrothChiler that's exactly what I meant, do it instead. But of course black can't do it instead, so my reading was just awful. Gotta start somewhere though, right?!

This was a really useful lecture for me, thanks Nick.

I know it's been 7 years, but in case anyone's wondering Nick meant to say Lion's mouth, which is another name for the trumpet connection.
Amazing videos.. I think You just made me want to learn lot more about this game again !!! cause I was pretty depressed cause I kept on loosing alot..
thank you so much !!!
Excellent lecture.
A couple of things were a little too fast for a 20k like me, but still, great stuff.
Thank you
Ruestyle 4d did a very similar lecture on KGS a couple weeks ago in Study Group - Kyu. These are very helpful, thanks!
What's the book you used for this?
Where did you find the Catalin Taranu video? :)
What book were you referring to?
Yet another great vid on the go
Very good lecture as usual.
Thanks for sharing.
eyyyy, A go professional from Romania.
ty very much sir learned alot
This was informative and funny, in a corny way. Excellent lesson. Where are you based?
sunshineyon I believe he is from Seattle
+Ethan Frank yes he is
On the first board the bottom left corner was dead with a black stone at 19-2
How long do you play go?
In "Twixt" if you waste even one move you pretty much lose then and there.
37:00 why not double Atari at 16-6?
+Jamie Clark It was White to move :P

+BrothChiler Unless you mean, why didn't black double atari instead of extending. In which case your comment makes sense
+BrothChiler that's exactly what I meant, do it instead. But of course black can't do it instead, so my reading was just awful. Gotta start somewhere though, right?!
Lesson #1: poking the tiger mouth is not bad.
