Aji Keshi
    Keywords: Go term

[Diagram]
Diag.: aji keshi

Aji keshi is a move that unnecessarily removes one's own aji. As an example, the exchange of black 1 for white 2 in this diagram is a bad move. By playing this way, black loses the chance to later, when there might have come a black stone at A, peep at 2, followed by white 1 and black B. This loss of potential is much more important than the meager one point of territory that black gains.
