Go / Weiqi Opening Record: B G17 Timing Choice
1. B N17 | W J10Main mistake: capturing one stone while the larger side framework becomes weak
from the board outward, name the visible demand, treat B G17 as the page's working move: map it to corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16, use W D4 as the reply test, complete the opening plan job by asking how to separate the opening shape from the early habit that would overextend the position, and then pick a related record that changes one reading task without changing the game family.
1. B N17 | W J10when the mistake is tempting, separate habit from proof, corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16 is the board feature to circle first. After that, compare B G17 with W D4. The all-levels job is to tie the rule card to one readable notation line before opening outside records. The page is useful only if that first inspection changes how this territory strategy opening shape: timing choice record is read.
before the final note, hold the answer lightly, do not skim past 6. B C10 | W K16. In this Go / Weiqi opening plan, the move turns liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order from background knowledge into the actual decision rule. Write this beside it: Black fixes shape while White takes sente on the upper side.
When checking the reply, let the diagram lead, read the rule note, replay the first two entries, then decide which level-specific record should be opened next. For opening shape: timing choice, the plan is not to memorize the line; it is to explain why W D4 changes the answer.

Position cue: a peep-looking move, a connection shape, and a whole-board pressure shift; one rule cue, one notation line, and one comparison path; corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the opening plan
1. B N17 | W J10Black starts the opening plan from the lower-left corner; White takes the opposite corner instead of answering locally.
When the plan looks natural, avoid the broad label, mixed-level readers get an intentionally short record: it gives a reusable checkpoint around B G17 before the reader opens a level-specific record page. Board cue: corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16. 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 N17 | W J10; 2. B G17 | W D4, which keeps the explanation tied to first shapes, early routes, development order, and when an early threat is real.
from the board outward, name the visible demand, after this opening shape: timing choice record, name the move that looked attractive and the reply that made it fail. The record has succeeded when W D4 feels like a test rather than another line of notation.
- 1Find the cue
in the replay notebook, make the cue do work, before using any label for the position, locate B G17 and the board detail it depends on so the plan stays local.
- 2Translate the rule
in the replay notebook, make the cue do work, 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.
- 3Make the answer local
in the replay notebook, make the cue do work, 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.
- 4Choose the next record
in the replay notebook, make the cue do work, use 4. B R14 | W K4 and 6. B C10 | W K16 as the before-and-after pair, then open a same-game page that changes the level or topic but keeps the notation familiar.
The margin record task works on first shapes, early routes, development order, and when an early threat is real. Board cue: corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16. Level job: the record note keeps the rule explanation and the record example together so readers know what to inspect when they open another page. In Go / Weiqi, practice this habit: read liberties, shape, and territory pressure before counting captures. The page keeps the record note narrow enough that the notation, cue, and mistake can be checked together. Replay evidence: the Go board coordinates with Black/White turns line begins move one B N17 | W J10; move two B G17 | W D4; inspect B G17.

Unique asset
A self-authored SVG record diagram for this Go / Weiqi opening plan marks corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16. It is paired with Go board coordinates with Black/White turns beginning 1. B N17 | W J10; 2. B G17 | W D4. The public reference image pub-go-goban-photo gives readers an open-gallery board or piece reference for the same game family.
Go / Weiqi rule check
Check this before the outside record: read 1. B N17 | W J10, 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 reference note.
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 N17 | W J10.
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 peep-looking move, a connection shape, and a whole-board pressure shift; one rule cue, one notation line, and one comparison path; corner approach at.
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.
How to read this record note
First replay: 1. B N17 | W J10. Keep the line short enough to say aloud before judging whether the move is good.
Then inspect: The margin record task works on first shapes, early routes, development order, and when an early threat is real. Board cue: corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16. Level job: the record note…
Outside check: Linked as a record-discovery index for readers who want real SGF files. Article records here remain compact annotated record notes.
Black/White coordinate notation
Read the sample as a compact record note for coordinates and shape, not as an official SGF from a named match.
1. B C6 | W R14Beginner Go records show one local shape, name liberties, and ask whether the next move connects, cuts, or defends territory.
Intermediate records introduce candidate moves and a turning point where sente, liberties, or shape efficiency changes.
Advanced records ask the reader to hold a local branch while checking whole-board direction and final conversion.

Commentary
First reading pass for Go / Weiqi Opening Shape: Timing Choice: Use move one B N17 | W J10; move two B G17 | W D4 as the anchor for this opening plan. The board detail to find first is corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16.
Decision note for Opening Shape: Timing Choice: compare B G17 with the tempting alternative and say what the opponent gains next.
Real gain in this opening plan appears one reply later. Here, W D4 checks whether the slower-looking choice was real.
Use the opening shape: timing choice cross-game comparison as a check, not as the record itself. This opening plan keeps liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order visible while the line is replayed.
By the end, point at W D4, explain the punishment in this opening plan, and choose whether the next record is easier or harder.

- The public image supports context and license transparency; it is separate from the article-specific record diagram and move sequence.
For this record, separate habit from proof, the working record for this opening shape: timing choice page is 1. B N17 | W J10; 2. B G17 | W D4, with W D4 as the reply check. It is an annotated record note, not a tournament score, and functions as a mixed-level annotated-record example built as a compact rules-and-record reference. Compare real archives for shape and notation only after the article line has been read on its own terms. 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 reference note stays an original annotated record example, separate from outside scores, player metadata, and source commentary.
- Notation and turn order: 1. B N17 | W J10.
- Position job and trained mistake: a peep-looking move, a connection shape, and a whole-board pressure shift; one rule cue, one notation line, and one comparison path; corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the opening plan / 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.

u-go.net Game Records: Go / Weiqi Opening early-game plans + peep-looking move connection shape whole-board pressure shift rule cue notation + 1. B N17 | W J10 + capturing stone larger side framework becomes weakOpen u-go.net Game RecordsStart with peep-looking move connection shape whole-board pressure shift rule cue notation. 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 N17 | W J10 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.
Record exemplarCompare the record note with a real source type2 source-backed exemplars for this game family.
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.
Where to verify the record context
These links give the reader a small, game-specific reference trail before using a real database, rule source, or public board reference. They support comparison; they are not copied into this article.
Use this when a Go / Weiqi record note depends on a corner approach, weak group, cut point, sente choice, or liberty count and the reader wants real SGF context.
Compare coordinate shape, corner side, local liberty count, and whether the outside record trains connection, cut, defense, or territory direction.rules and positionGo Rule and Scoring NoteUse this for liberties, capture, territory, scoring vocabulary, and beginner-friendly rule checks before reading a composed record fragment.

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 N17 | W J10. Compare outside records only for notation shape before judging move quality.
- 2Anchor the same kind of position
Use this page cue: a peep-looking move, a connection shape, and a whole-board pressure shift; one rule cue, one notation line, and one comparison path; corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the opening plan Look for a similar board, tile, route, or threat problem, not an identical copied position.
- 3Read it as a reference 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 reference record is for.
- 4Keep record note and outside record separate

Public reference: in this example, make the cue do work, the original record diagram is paired with Wikimedia Commons Goban board photo, a public-library reference for a physical goban board reference for coordinate, empty-board, and shape-reading record notes; used as game-material context before the reader checks the article-specific record diagram. It is a source-traced reference image, not a substitute for the annotated record note or the page-specific cue corner approach at N17, pincer at D4, and cut point near Q16. The page keeps the open reference image contextual rather than exact. This public-library context remains separate from the self-authored article-specific diagram.
