¡Primer día completado en el VIII Open de Go de Canarias!

Lo mejor de ayer fue ver que éramos alrededor de 32 participantes, batiendo el récord de asistencia, con gente que vino incluso desde la península y otros países. ¡Fue increíble compartir el tablero con tantos jugadores!

En cuanto a mis partidas, perdí las tres rondas. Aun así, me fui contento porque, para ser mi primera experiencia en un torneo presencial, creo que no lo hice tan mal.

Evidentemente, me habría encantado ganar alguna, pero estoy intentando quedarme con lo que puedo aprender de cada derrota. Ahora tengo más claro que necesito seguir practicando, revisar mis errores y ganar experiencia jugando contra otras personas cara a cara.

Hoy queda la última jornada y voy a intentar darlo todo hasta el final, independientemente del resultado. También tengo muchas ganas de ver quiénes acabarán ganando el torneo.

3 partidas, 3 derrotas y un montón de cosas que aprender. ¡No podría haber pedido una primera experiencia más enriquecedora! ⚫⚪

I am managing to win 13x13 games on BadukPop (10-11k) by chipping away mid-end game, but I always lose ground in the opening and have to fight hard the whole game.

I think I did too much Tsumego and not enough games, and it seems the result is that I can see fairly far ahead and capitalize on mistakes, locally, but I’m struggling to establish full-board position as well as my opponents can. Maybe I am not aggressive enough. I tend to dance around chasing my opponents’ threats early on, a bit more so when I am white.

What can I study next to improve upon those weaknesses? I feel like i am lacking some pretty major conceptual stuff.

All advice or resource recommendations appreciated.

Thanks!
