Chapter 212 The "big-headed ghost" that appeared in the middle of the abdomen
The match between Li Xiaoqiang and Yasuma Hamine has been going on until around 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Now that the game is now on, it seems that the outcome of the whole game will soon be revealed.
Indeed, although Go is unpredictable, especially in mid-game battles, there are often a lot of clues. However, the chess game has been carried out so far, when there is a "match" situation on the chessboard. The rest of the clues seemed to disappear naturally. It seems that there is only one path left: "you live or die". By this time, the other ideas of "discarded conversion" had basically lost the soil for survival. The result of "killing" can often determine the outcome of a game of chess.
But Go is so interesting, although the scene of "killing" is very hot and the battle is very fierce. However, from the perspective of techniques, the "killing" in Go is often very simple, which is simpler than many other techniques.
This should also be a normal thing. The difficulty of Go lies in the "clue". When there is only one way left in Huashan, when both sides have no other choice, it is very simple in terms of Go skills.
The whole game was played with more than 10 moves, and a large "match-to-kill" situation officially appeared on the chessboard. It is precisely because of the difficulty in technique that Zhang Zhidong, who has the lowest level of Go in the research room, seems to be able to quickly predict the outcome of the kill:
"Will this place form a "double active"? ”
Yes, "Active"! This is another interesting thing in Go. There are many people who believe that Go contains a lot of "oriental thinking". The "double active" in Go is the embodiment of this oriental thinking.
If you compare playing Go to a war. Then "killing" should be the most intense and extreme way. It's just that the result of "killing" is not necessarily "life or death". The result of "killing" can often end peacefully. This is "Active".
The means of "robbery" are very intense, but in fact it is taking a "middle route". The process of "killing" is very extreme, in fact, it may also "coexist peacefully" at the very least.
This is the thinking of "moderation", this is the thinking of "harmony", and this is one of the essences of oriental culture.
Is this game of chess "double live" or "you live or die"? The answer is being revealed step by step.
"Killing" is very simple in terms of technique. Deciding who can win is nothing more than "comparing qi". Whoever has more "qi" will win. Therefore, when carrying out the "confrontation and killing", the two sides are nothing more than "reining in" or "tightening the air".
When there is a "confrontation" on the chessboard, often the "principle" is more important than the specific means. People have summed up a lot of the principles of "killing", and there are just so many of them. For example, "having eyes kills blindness", "big eyes kill small eyes", "qi long kills eyes" and so on. For some of these principles, it is easy for amateur chess players who have a beginner level or above to understand them.
Of course, there are two principles that must be fully understood and resolutely implemented when concretely carrying out the killing. Otherwise, it is easy to make mistakes when killing.
The first principle is "grow first, then tighten". When you start to kill, you must not rush to think about this to "tighten" the opponent's qi, but first think about the possibility of "long qi". Such a principle should be well understood. For example, to capture 1 piece on the board, you must spend 4 moves, that is, a piece has 4 breaths. 2 of them. There are 6 breaths. You make a move to turn your 4 breaths into 6 breaths. And when the opponent eats you, he has to go from 4 moves to 6 moves.
In terms of "hand efficiency", if you spend a hand to "grow your energy", is your efficiency higher? This is the "first to grow up." after the tightening". When applying this principle, you should not only look at your own moves, but also pay attention to the means to curb the opponent's "longevity". In short, when considering "matchmaking", first consider "long chess". If you think about "tight air" again, you can't go wrong.
This principle is easy to be overlooked by many enthusiasts, and there is another principle that most chess players are still very aware of. The second principle is: "Tighten your breath first." Tighten the public spirit".
When there is a "duel kill", the two pieces are definitely entangled together. Some intersections on the chessboard are likely to be both one's own "qi" and the enemy's "qi". This kind of gas is called "public gas". This principle is also well explained by the term "lot efficiency". When you are "tight", the effect of a move is to hold the opponent's breath, and when you are "tight", you are holding the opponent's breath, but at the same time, you are also tightening your own breath. Of course, such efficiency is not good.
Generally speaking, the technical content of "killing" is not high, and its technical content is not even as large as that of "Dots". Even if an amateur 3rd dan and a professional 9th dan "fight", the amateur 3rd dan will not necessarily make a mistake. It is very natural for an amateur master like Zhang Zhidong to blurt out "is it double active".
Of course, whether it is "active" or not still needs to be checked. This kind of calculation is actually the process of "calculating qi", and the difficulty is equivalent to that of arithmetic problems in the first grade of elementary school.
It is necessary for the appearance of "double active" at the time of "killing", which means that there must be "public spirit". And there must be more than 2 mouths of "public gas" to form a "double active". Of course, if you have a fixed eye position, you only need to take a breath of "public air". Because of this "eye position", in fact, it can also be seen as another "public gas".
Generally speaking, the more "public gas", the more likely it is to form "active". If there is a lot of "public qi", experienced chess players do not need to calculate at all, as long as they prevent "blind killing" and other means, they can be sure that it is "double active".
This game of chess is more subtle, although there is a "public spirit", but there are not many such "public spirits". Whether it is "double live" or "you live or die" must also go through accurate calculations.
In the game room, Li Xiaoqiang is checking the calculations, and his opponent Mr. Hane is also checking the calculations. In the research room, Chinese and Japanese chess players watching the game are also checking the calculations. The process of such a calculation is very simple, just a very simple arithmetic problem. The conclusion was not long in coming. This conclusion is clear to the players who are playing the game, and the spectators are also aware of it.
In this part will form a "double active"!
When everyone came to this conclusion, they all felt lucky for Li Xiaoqiang. Yes, in everyone's calculations, although it is possible to form a "double active", but Li Xiaoqiang's white chess is a "double active" by a difference. If Li Xiaoqiang is less angry or Mr. Yugen is more angry, Li Xiaoqiang will be slaughtered by others. It can be said that Li Xiaoqiang is very thrilling and has become a "double active".
"Hehe, Mr. Hane must be unwilling now."
In the game room, the next move is Mr. Hane's turn to play chess. He didn't fall for a long time. The chess players in the research room guessed his current mood, so someone made such a joke.
Indeed, it was possible to slaughter the other party's big dragon, but because of the difference, it ended up being a double life. It is estimated that many chess players are not reconciled. When Mr. Hane made a move, it seemed to confirm his unwillingness:
"Ha Luha, it seems that Mr. Hane is really unwilling. Isn't this move a loss of robbery? …… Well, I guess he wants to see a little more clearly......"
The chess players in the laboratory once again guessed Mr. Hane's psychology. It should be said that their speculation is justified. Mr. Hane chose to take the step of "tightening". It should be said that this move is unnecessary, and his most correct choice should be to take the lead. Just when this process of "killing" has come to an end. Anyway, it's clear that it's double-active, and it doesn't matter what other people's anger does. Black makes a move. White followed the move. Such a move needs to be kept and can be used as one's own robbery.
Of course, there are a lot of such robbery materials for black chess at the moment, and it doesn't matter if he wastes one or two. He is like this, there is only one possibility, he is unwilling, he wants to see more clearly, to see whether it is a double life or a dragon slay......
Of course, the chess players in the lab don't blame Mr. Hagen. This kind of chess is harmless, and compared with a robbery, the "first move" is the most important. As long as the "first move" is in the hands of Mr. Hane, in the entire fierce battle ahead. It can be assumed that black has made a slight profit. After finishing this part. It's basically in the closing stage. Although the gap is relatively subtle, Mr. Hane has the first hand. The whole situation can be considered as black taking a slight lead.
The two sides have been fighting for nearly 100 hands, which is actually a battle for "one hand of chess". And this "one-hand chess" seems to have fallen into the hands of Mr. Hane.
That's what the chess players in the lab think. I guess Mr. Hane thinks the same way. Only Li Xiaoqiang doesn't think so!
After Li Xiaoqiang made the next move, the chess players in the research room widened their eyes. And his opponent, Mr. Hane, also had his eyes wide open.
Li Xiaoqiang didn't make any clever moves, he just made a step to "break". Merely. With this step "broken" later. He made Black's previous move a "bad move"!
"Hahaha, it turns out that there is a "big-headed ghost" here, which is a "big-headed ghost" in the middle of the belly......"
After seeing Li Xiaoqiang play this move, Zhang Zhidong quickly reacted, he ignored his gaffe, shouted in the research room, his face was flushed, he seemed to see victory beckoning to Li Xiaoqiang.
"Big-headed ghost" is one of the basic "tesuji" in Go. A very common, very large road goods of "tight air tesuji". Its technique is not difficult at all. It can only be regarded as an intermediate tesuji of Go. An amateur master like Zhang Zhidong, as soon as he sees such a method, he quickly understands the meaning of this move.
To tell the truth, in this part, this move is not very useful. It just tightened the grip of black's move. In this part, it is also "active".
But in terms of the big picture, this move is huge! The reason why Zhang Zhidong is so excited is because he knows the significance of this move. With this step of Tesuji, this "first move" will belong to Li Xiaoqiang! As long as there is such a move, the whole situation will be tilted in favor of white. White has seen the dawn of victory!
Because of this "big-headed ghost", Li Xiaoqiang is equivalent to using one move to tighten the two cards of black chess. Relying on this move, Li Xiaoqiang's white chess still can't kill the big dragon of black chess. It's just that Li Xiaoqiang has taken the lead in some parts! He can grab a step ahead!
What does it mean to be one step ahead at this time? It's clear to all.
Zhang Zhidong was suddenly a little embarrassed while being elated. He suddenly felt a little ashamed, yes, he was a little ashamed. He was ashamed that he didn't see this "big-headed ghost". Reporter Zhang Da is an amateur 5th section, and he is about to represent Shencheng Evening News to participate in China's first "Evening News Cup". To be honest, the "big-headed ghost" in Go basically belongs to the tesuji that should be mastered in the early stage of the amateur.
"After I go back, I have to practice well, at least I have to familiarize myself with the sense of chess......
Zhang Zhidong was thinking about it, he found a reason for not seeing the "big-headed ghost", and he attributed it to the decline of his "chess sense". Just when reporter Zhang Da was thinking nonsense, a voice came, it was Mr. Sakata's voice, it was the voice of Mr. Sakata, who felt alone in the world, and it was the voice of Mr. Sakata, the king of wonderful hands:
"Hey, it seems that I'm really old, although this method is a bit complicated, I don't even see it...... What an extraordinary imagination! This kid's talent for Go is really good. ”
Zhang Zhidong was overjoyed, just now he was still embarrassed that he didn't see this "big-headed ghost". If you can't even see the King of Skillful Hands......
"Hahaha, it turns out that you old guy didn't see it, I was still embarrassed just now. I'm too embarrassed to admit I didn't see it. Since you didn't even see it all at once. I don't have anything to be embarrassed about......"
There is no doubt that the only one who can say this is Fujisawa Hideyuki, an old god stick.
A "king of good hands", a master of sensation on the chessboard, they actually didn't find a single intermediate tesuji. Is this possible? In real life, this is quite possible!
This is the case with Go, where basic tesuji, such as "big-headed ghosts", often appear in the corners of the board. When he appears in the mid-belly, the difficulty tends to increase a lot. In order to find such a means in the mid-abdomen, what is most needed is what Mr. Sakata calls "imagination".
And the "imagination" on the chessboard is often impossible to train, which belongs to a kind of Go talent!
In the latest three-country tournament, China's Shi Yue won South Korea's new generation of leader Xiao Park with a "reverse boot". The "big-headed ghost" still belongs to the "intermediate tesuji" of Go, but what about the "upside-down boots"? It's all "beginner tesuji". After such a junior tesuji appeared in the middle of the belly through a makeover, even a world champion-level chess player like Xiao Pu did not see it in advance. Many of the players in the viewing room didn't see it either.
It can't be said that Xiao Pu's Go talent is not good, but in terms of "imagination" of Go, he may indeed be inferior to China's Shi Yue.
When Li Xiaoqiang made this step of "mid-belly big-headed ghost", he grabbed the first step, a crucial first move!
The game continues, but what is the story of this game? (To be continued......)
