Diag.: 6 connects

This is a variation of the squeeze tesuji but performed on the first line. As the result White is connected and Black has to find life in unfriendly environment.


[Diagram]
Diag.: White to live.

dnerra: Here is a variant of this tesuji that I recently missed in one my games.

Answer to appear on a separate page?.


[Diagram]
Diag.: Sagari saves and kills


Discussion moved to two-stone edge squeeze.


Something from the endgame. Beginner's level.

[Diagram]
Diag.: Common with beginners.


[Diagram]
Diag.: Another quite common situation.

This happens sometimes even at IGS 5k* level. But in most games it is never played and remains a hidden threat that limits opponent's freedom of choice.



I would call this ugly sagari tesuji. It appear with two unfriendly stones that cut off our forces and there is some shortage of liberties. The following diagram is just a general scheme. But the move is useful to remember.

Diag.: Ugly sagari


I have been wanting to find out the English (or Japanese written using the English alphabet, such as "tesuji") names of the following basic techniques, but so far I have been unsuccessful. Although they are similar, but the Chinese differentiate between them. They are "Bao4 Chi1" and "Men2 Chi1" respectively in Chinese.

Can anyone please help me? Thanks! --unkx80
