"When in doubt, tenuki." A simple statement and a proverb I've heard in many forms. There are a few justifications for this particular formulation:
-- Karl Knechtel (~14k. Just trying to fill in a gap here.) dnerra: I'd like to discuss this. Bildstein: Actually, I tell myself "When absolutely sure, tenuki." But that's generally when I'm trying to figure out whether or not I need another move to secure life. Other times, I follow the philosophy that even a local play can be tenuki: I forget about that area while I consider the whole board, I forget which was the last move, and then I make a move that happens to be in the same area as my opponents last move.
