Choosing Winning Corner Variations by Honda Kunihisa, 9-dan
Learning joseki is an important step on the road to mastering Go. However, leaming how to choose the winning joseki is even more important. This exeellent book bridges the gap between fuseki, the opening moves of the game, and joseki. Joseki are sequenees of plays in the corners that give a Ioeal result that is equal in value for both white and black. By playing a joseki you ensure that you avoid mistakes. But the corner interacts with the rest of the board, and the biggest mistake of all may have been the joseki that you chose. Here a master of the game presents 24 typical opening situations. In each situation the author proposes 3 different strategies for play in one of the corners, and then analyses the whole board situation. 'Although locally aU3 moves are plausible, that is to say they are josekis, from the whole board point of view only one of the strategies is superior. The preferred and inferior moves are then analyzed in great detail. From these examples you will gain an insight into when and why one joseki is better than another.
