If a move is free, it doesn't mean it's good.

(7)

Understanding that playing sente moves as early as possible can make a lot of profit is step one. Step two is realizing that most of forcing moves and sente exchanges are actually wrong. They could eliminate some future possibilities, strengthen your opponent for no reason or just lack the subtlety needed in Go. This course will introduce the key types of forcing moves, when to play them without thinking, and when to keep them in reserve for optimal results.

Suitable for: 12-2 kyu

Another good course from Go Magic. The concepts are quite tough, so certainly not for DDKs, but it definitely introduces another way of thinking about sente which is very userful.

I watched the first half right after watching moving to the middle game. 🤯 They work so well together, particularly the part from Matthew's about leaving a traditional joseki unfinished to play kikashi, then return to finish the joseki. And thinking about applying these concepts throughout the middle game, I've gone from around a 10kyu player to beating 4-6kyus in only a week!!
