[16:03] d0t[4k]: you would with p1

Move 0 + 59

[16:05] scalar[3k]: How White must protect here?

[16:07] mark5000[6d]: There's no good local defense.

Move 0 + 57

[16:07] mokotower[6k]: K2?

Move 0 + 58

[16:07] mark5000[6d]: Probably this one.

Move 0 + 62

[16:08] mark5000[6d]: Something like this

Move 0 + 57

[16:08] mark5000[6d]: The important thing is Black's technique.

[16:08] mark5000[6d]: But Black can do even better than this. :)

Move 0 + 57

[16:15] mark5000[6d]: Let's look at the sequence again.

Move 0 + 59

[16:15] mark5000[6d]: After this forcing move,

Move 0 + 61

[16:16] mark5000[6d]: This large knight completes a good combination.

[16:16] mark5000[6d]: If you remember this combination, it will help in your games.

Move 0 + 48

[16:17] mark5000[6d]: Excuse me, the diagram should be this one.

Move 0 + 50

[16:19] mark5000[6d]: Can anyone find the tesuji?

[16:20] TheGoGetter[6k]: 33

[16:20] mark5000[6d]: It might be hard.

[16:20] Cactus Juice[2k]: b18

[16:20] scalar[3k]: B18

[16:20] Cactus Juice[2k]: those sdks hijacking the class

[16:21] umnikos[7k]: E18?

[16:21] VincentSalsero[4k]: d18

[16:21] mark5000[6d]: Cactus Juice: seriously. in the last example for sure :)

[16:22] 音無し[4k]: B18 makes miai of D18 and B16 ?

[16:22] mark5000[6d]: B18 is actually unnecessary.

Move 0 + 58

[16:24] TheGoGetter[6k]: sweet!

[16:24] Yuri777[4k]: nice

Move 0 + 52

[16:24] umnikos[7k]: I like it

Move 0 + 47

[16:26] mark5000[6d]: So I taught you how to invade using first-line tesujis.

[16:26] mark5000[6d]: That's all I prepared for today.

[16:26] mark5000[6d]: Any questions?

[16:26] TheGoGetter[6k]: =]

[16:26] TheGoGetter[6k]: ty!

[16:26] Synectome[5k]: thank you

[16:26] umnikos[7k]: this seems to rely on big one-line jumps

[16:26] umnikos[7k]: is there a list of those?

[16:26] scalar[3k]: Thank you

Move 0 + 50

[16:26] jeffreyosw13[7k]: thank you

Move 0 + 47

[16:27] d0t[4k]: thanks mark!

[16:27] mark5000[6d]: Yes, it does. The purpose is to enable such big jumps.

[16:27] zerg drone[2d]: thank you

[16:27] mark5000[6d]: It don't know of any list, but the reading is not hard once you find the tesuji.

[16:28] jeffreyosw13[7k]: Hi Mark

[16:28] Yuri777[4k]: when should you jumpp first or second line ?

[16:28] jeffreyosw13[7k]: i missed out abit

[16:28] Yuri777[4k]: Only reading ?

[16:28] jeffreyosw13[7k]: so what is the tesuji for this current diagram ?

[16:28] Yuri777[4k]: or is there a rule

Move 0 + 57

[16:28] jeffreyosw13[7k]: ah thank you

[16:29] mark5000[6d]: Don't be lazy! The reading is not past any of you.

[16:29] mark5000[6d]: Here, for example, you can't jump three spaces

Move 0 + 59

[16:29] mark5000[6d]: The refutation is on move 2, so you can all see it

Move 0 + 58

[16:30] mark5000[6d]: So you try a two-space jump. Second line is almost always superior, so here we are

[16:30] mark5000[6d]: The rule of thumb is to jump as far as you can when reducing territory

[16:30] jeffreyosw13[7k]: this first time tesuji is very useful ! i see now. the concept is to play forcing moves , then make jump like so

[16:30] jeffreyosw13[7k]: *first line

Move 0 + 59

[16:31] shusaku godmode[9k]: Really great, Mark, thank you! Is this something best reserved for endgame, or would you do it in the middle game as well?

Move 0 + 58

[16:31] Diego_123[10k]: the key is to reach top line

[16:31] mark5000[6d]: It works best in the middlegame or early endgame, yeah

[16:31] mark5000[6d]: It's definitely not an opening tactic.

Move 0 + 59

[16:32] shusaku godmode[9k]: OK great, thank you

Move 0 + 58

[16:32] jeffreyosw13[7k]: Thank you Mark ! I've been very weak at handling this kind of moves. Now that I know, i can apply them as well. Seems to be very practical.

[16:33] CaPa[?]: Hi, sorry, do this regularly? When is the next time?

[16:34] mark5000[6d]: Thanks. This lecture is part of my Saturday morning lecture series Becoming 9 Kyu. Find past lectures here: becoming 9-kyu-a-series-for-beginners

[16:34] CaPa[?]: great - thanks!!
