Again, I don't understand go so well, but how do you win against mirror go?
It seems you must either take advantage somehow of the non-symmetry of the center point OR take advantage of the fact that a capture could break the symmetry. Is that right? If it's by capture it seems that since you will get the make the capture first, you could win by making sure this capture spoiled your opponent mirror capture. Is that the basic strategy or is there more? - Don On Mon, Jul 20, 2009 at 9:14 AM, "Ingo Althöfer" <[email protected]>wrote: > Don Dailey wrote: > > I thought you played mirror go as white? > > Or with Black, starting in center. > It is possible when komi is only 0.5 and > chinese scoring. > > > I'm not a go player, but it seems like it would be hard to win if > > you had the white pieces with 0.5 komi and black mirrored everything > > you did.
