BSR 2003 White 4
Path: StonesWalkingPath · Prev: BQM52 · Next:
With this play, the Black Sheep rengo 2003 deviated from a celebrated game. I think this White 1 is hard to justify. Only if Black makes a mistake can White expect to benefit. Starting at tengen makes the game difficult, for sure. Basic principles remain the same, though. White 1 here is pushing from behind: if Black replies White can never gain an advantage in influence. In a sense, at this early stage and in the centre of the board, the bad feeling about pushing from behind should be at its clearest. Neither player is making real territory; the balance of influence is the important factor in the position.
