Go / Weiqi Endgame Record: B Q10 Final Tempo
1. B R14 | W K4Main mistake: capturing one stone while the larger side framework becomes weak
in the margin note, check the rule before style, treat B Q10 as the page's working move: map it to corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10, use W F3 as the reply test, complete the finishing pattern job by asking how to trace the final route, capture, promotion, territory, or hand-completion checkpoint, and then compare the neighboring level while the notation is still familiar.
1. B R14 | W K4inside this line, keep the comparison same-game, say 1. B R14 | W K4, find corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10, and ask whether the next reply leaves liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order intact. The advanced job is to hold the forcing move, quiet preparation, and conversion test in the same line. The page is useful only if that first inspection changes how this territory strategy finish pattern: final tempo record is read.
as the rule cue appears, read the reply as evidence, the record bends at 7. B K4 probe | W connects at Q10. In this Go / Weiqi finishing pattern, this is where the record stops being a label and becomes a reply-by-reply comparison. Write this beside it: The branch shows why a direct cut fails when the outside liberties are short.
With the rule still visible, avoid the broad label, track every reply that could refute the plan. The important failure is capturing one stone while the larger side framework becomes weak, not the first move that looks sharp. For finish pattern: final tempo, the plan is not to memorize the line; it is to explain why W F3 changes the answer.

Advanced records ask the reader to hold a local branch while checking whole-board direction and final conversion.
in the margin note, check the rule before style, after this finish pattern: final tempo record, run a short source check that keeps this article record separate from outside scores.

- 1Start on the board
when checking the reply, make the branch earn trust, read 1. B R14 | W K4; 2. B Q10 | W F3 aloud, then stop at the first place the diagram shows corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10 and write that cue in the margin.
- 2Name the rule cue
when checking the reply, make the branch earn trust, use the rule cue as a filter: a legal-looking move is not enough if it fails the next reply and loses the position's purpose.
- 3Stress-test the plan
when checking the reply, make the branch earn trust, use the reply as a stress test. If capturing one stone while the larger side framework becomes weak is still hidden, reread the board cue before moving on to the finish.
- 4Close with a same-game step
when checking the reply, make the branch earn trust, use 4. B N17 | W J10 and 10. B J10 end position as the before-and-after pair, then open a same-game page that changes the level or topic but keeps the notation familiar.
The tempo record task works on promotion, capture timing, territory closure, final route efficiency, or safe hand completion. Board cue: corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10. Level job: the record note treats the line like an annotated record file: name the long-term structure, test the forcing line, then explain the final conversion. In Go / Weiqi, practice this habit: read liberties, shape, and territory pressure before counting captures. The record note is built for comparison: one rule cue, one plan, and one mistake that changes the next reply. Replay evidence: the Go board coordinates with Black/White turns line begins move one B R14 | W K4; move two B Q10 | W F3; inspect B Q10.

What this record looks like
Before the replay, make the cue do work, this advanced Go / Weiqi finishing pattern is a 10-entry record file: the forcing branch starts at B Q10, but the evaluation depends on the quiet conversion after W F3. Board cue: corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10. Rule check: liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order. The notation uses Go board coordinates with Black/White turns. The first two entries are 1. B R14 | W K4; 2. B Q10 | W F3, which keeps the explanation tied to promotion, capture timing, territory closure, final route efficiency, or safe hand completion.
Position cue
a weak side group, a running lane, and a sente exchange that may not be forcing; a forcing branch, a quiet move, and a conversion test; corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the finishing pattern

Go / Weiqi rule check
Check this before the outside record: read 1. B R14 | W K4, name the rule source, test the position cue, and keep the mistake visible.
Open American Go AssociationAmerican Go Association is the rule source to open first; use it for legal vocabulary before comparing this advanced record.
The B/W coordinate line is a reading aid: it anchors color, board point, and sequence. It should be read with liberties and connection before judging whether a move is a tactic or only a local shape note. On this page the first line is 1. B R14 | W K4.
A move places a stone on an empty intersection, then captures opposing chains with no liberties. Suicide, ko, and scoring details depend on the ruleset, so local record notes keep the rule claim narrow. For this page, apply it to a weak side group, a running lane, and a sente exchange that may not be forcing; a forcing branch, a quiet move, and a.
The common trap is cutting or capturing before counting liberties. A move that looks forcing in a diagram may fail because the outside group has too few liberties or because the reply takes sente elsewhere. Here the reader's mistake check is capturing one stone while the larger side framework becomes weak.

Commentary
First reading pass for Go / Weiqi Finish Pattern: Final Tempo: Start with one inspection job: locate B Q10. Then explain why W F3 is the reply test.
This Go / Weiqi finish pattern: final tempo note rewards the player who names the threat before moving. For finish pattern: final tempo, B Q10 only makes sense after corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10 is counted.
Go / Weiqi finish pattern: final tempo can punish a move that only looks energetic. In this finish pattern: final tempo record note, a forcing-looking cut can strengthen the opponent if the outside group has fewer liberties, so the annotation stays attached to liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order.
Transfer note for Go / Weiqi Finish Pattern: Final Tempo: Go / Weiqi is deeper than most race games because every local exchange also changes the whole-board map. For this finish pattern: final tempo page, name liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order before adding a broad strategy label.
Choose the next related record only after naming corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10, capturing one stone while the larger side framework becomes weak, and the rule that made the reply work.

3-4 point approach and local joseki comparison keeps a weak side group, a running lane, and a sente exchange that may not be forcing; a forcing branch, a quiet move, and a conversion test; corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the finishing pattern connected to a stable board, route, tile, or threat shape.

- Compare corner point, approach side, reply shape, local liberties, and whether the outside example is about connection, cut, or territory direction.

Wikimedia Commons adjacent Go stones diagram is the public visual reference for this Go / Weiqi page; when the mistake is tempting, make the branch earn trust, Wikimedia Commons adjacent Go stones diagram works as the open-gallery companion image because readers can compare it with adjacent black and white stones, matching liberty, connection, and capture-shape explanations; used as game-material context before the reader checks the article-specific record diagram. The public image helps readers identify materials before the article-specific diagram tests liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order. The page keeps the open reference image contextual rather than exact. This public-library context remains separate from the self-authored article-specific diagram.
- Compare
- Use the image for board, piece, route, tile, or surface context, then use the article diagram and 1. B R14 | W K4 for the exact composed line.
- Keep separate
- The public image supports context and license transparency; it is separate from the article-specific record diagram and move sequence.
From the board outward, keep the comparison same-game, B Q10 is composed here as a short Go / Weiqi finishing pattern example beginning 1. B R14 | W K4; 2. B Q10 | W F3. The page uses it as an annotated record note, not a tournament score, built to slow down a dense branch. The reader should verify the rule family separately instead of treating this note as an external score sheet. The page-specific mistake check is capturing one stone while the larger side framework becomes weak.
- Compare
- Use outside material to check B/W coordinates, liberties, connection shape, sente/gote timing, and local fighting purpose, source type, and position similarity before returning to the article line.
- Keep separate
- Use SGF move trees, player metadata, commentary, or whole game files only as context checks; this advanced record note stays an original annotated record example, separate from outside scores, player metadata, and source commentary.
- Notation and turn order: 1. B R14 | W K4.
- Position job and trained mistake: a weak side group, a running lane, and a sente exchange that may not be forcing; a forcing branch, a quiet move, and a conversion test; corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the finishing pattern / capturing one stone while the larger side framework becomes weak.
- Image fit, source URL, license label, and whether the public image matches the same game family.
- Outside scores, player metadata, event labels, table logs, SGF files, and database commentary stay outside the article body.
- A public image is visual context, not proof that the composed move sequence happened in a real match.
- A classic position anchor helps comparison; it is not a claim that this page reproduces that exact external record.

B R14 | W K4 + capturing stone larger side framework becomes weakOpen u-go.net Game RecordsStart with weak side group running lane sente exchange may not be. The goal is to find the same kind of board, tile, route, or threat problem before looking for an exact score.
Use the sample 1. B R14 | W K4 to compare notation form, move length, and record density against external material.
Keep this mistake visible while comparing: capturing stone larger side framework becomes weak. A useful outside record should make that decision easier to discuss.
Open u-go.net Game Records for real records or position context, but keep this record note separate from copied match scores and named-player claims.

Compare the record note with a real source type
These exemplars explain what to compare in a real record index, rules source, or position reference before judging this annotated record note. They keep source lookup useful without copying outside records.
Look for a corner approach or local fighting SGF, then compare coordinates, liberties, sente/gote order, and the cut point.
Beginner: name liberties and connect-or-cut. Intermediate: compare candidate moves and the turning point. Advanced: hold a branch while checking direction and conversion.competition rules boundaryLiberty and Capture ExemplarUse liberty, capture, ko, and scoring vocabulary to check whether a compact SGF-like record note asks for a legal connection, cut, or defensive reply.
Beginner: count liberties and name the connection. Intermediate: compare cut, connect, and sente. Advanced: keep the local liberty race while checking direction and conversion.Classic position anchorsUse known record shapes before searching for exact scores2 anchors; compare without copying a real score.
Use known record shapes before searching for exact scores
These anchors name stable rule, opening, route, tile, or board-position shapes for this game family. They help readers compare this annotated record note with external material without copying a real score.
Use this anchor when a Go / Weiqi article compares a corner approach, side pressure, or local shape before whole-board judgment.
Compare corner point, approach side, reply shape, local liberties, and whether the outside example is about connection, cut, or territory direction.Weak group with a cut point and two-liberty raceLiberty Count and Cut AnchorUse this anchor when a page asks the reader to count liberties before cutting, connecting, or defending a weak group.
Compare local stone contact, liberty count, cut point, sente/gote direction, and whether the outside SGF shows the same tactical question.Curated reference packWhere to verify the record context2 game-specific references kept separate from the article line.

How to compare this fragment with external records
Use this as a reading path before opening external databases or classic-position references. The goal is comparison, not copying a real score into this article.
- 1Match the notation shape
Start with Black/White coordinate notation and the sample 1. B R14 | W K4. Compare outside records only for notation shape before judging move quality.
- 2Anchor the same kind of position
Use this page cue: a weak side group, a running lane, and a sente exchange that may not be forcing; a forcing branch, a quiet move, and a conversion test; corner approach at R14, pincer at F3, and cut point near C10; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the finishing pattern Look for a similar board, tile, route, or threat problem, not an identical copied position.
- 3Read it as a advanced record note
Compare record length, annotation density, and the trained mistake: capturing one stone while the larger side framework becomes weak. That is how this page explains what a advanced record is for.
