Handicap Go Discussion
Jan: Just a quick question, for now: has any SL deshi ever played a game with reverse komi instead of normal handicap stones? So, for instance, when by rank difference a four stone handicap game should be played, has anyone played with forty points of komi for Black? The reason I'm asking is that while I like going up in rank by winning handicap games, this doesn't help my 'normal' play - joseki[1], direction of play and so on. I'd like to get started on that aspect of the game, because I don't want to be without a clue when I finally reach the level to play even games (at tournaments for example). Also I think I'd like to get better at estimating the score. [1]: All I know how to play is the small knight approach to 4-4 :-) This is a copy of the living page "Handicap Go Discussion" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
