Sector Line
    Keywords: Strategy, Theory

BruceWilcox introduced the term "sector line" for an imaginary line joining stones of the same color.

In general it is good to break your opponent's sector lines. The shorter the sector line, the more severe the breach, as a rule.

A sector line may be considered as the boundary of a moyo. Sector lines may be used to distinguish an invasion from a reduction. Often the place to play keshi is at the middle of a sector line (but this is just a heuristic).
