Sentegote
A local position in which play for one side is sente, but for the opponent is gote, is said to be a sente-gote position. Or simply sente. -- BillSpight
The simplest sente-gote position is seen on the left. A play by white would be sente, whereas a play by black would be gote, since white does not have to protect against the cut. With miai counting, the value of a white play is 3 points sente. A black play at 3 would also be worth 3 points, but in gote. However, in this position blacks play counts as Reverse sente therefore more valuable. -- MortenPahle This is a copy of the living page "Sentegote" at Sensei's Library.
