Is it Possible to Stop Blue?
Playing red, I run into positions such as the one below frequently (there are other stones on the board, but I'm trying to simplify for my own understanding).
- Is blue's stone 1 already connected to the right edge before I played 2?
- Is this because 1 is a fifth row template?
- If blue 1 is not "unstoppable", assuming red 2 is a mistake if the goal is to prevent blue from connecting to the right, what is the correct approach?
Answer: Instead of k7, you should play j8, creating a bottleneck. The further from the edge you do this, the better it generally is.
