Go / Weiqi Opening Record: B K4 Shape Check
1. B C6 | W R14Main mistake: cutting before counting liberties
as the rule cue appears, turn notation into a question, scan the record in three passes: first quote 1. B C6 | W R14; 2. B K4 | W Q10, then explain liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order, then use the screen checkpoint to separate the opening shape from the early habit that would overextend the position; only after that should the reader then use the source shortcut only after the local rule cue is clear.
1. B C6 | W R14with the same-game path, tie the move to the board, intermediate readers should start by naming cutting before counting liberties; it tells them what to watch when B K4 appears. The intermediate job is to keep two candidate replies alive until the timing test resolves them. The page is useful only if that first inspection changes how this territory strategy opening shape: shape check record is read.
with the rule still visible, make the cue do work, the record bends at 5. B J10 | W G17. In this Go / Weiqi opening plan, this is where the record stops being a label and becomes a reply-by-reply comparison. Write this beside it: The intermediate turning point is a liberty count, not a capture race.
At the diagram, make one local test, use 1. B C6 | W R14; 2. B K4 | W Q10 as the baseline, then ask whether the middle move improves the plan or merely delays the reply. For opening shape: shape check, the plan is not to memorize the line; it is to explain why W Q10 changes the answer.

The page is useful only if that first inspection changes how this territory strategy opening shape: shape check record is read.
Position cue: a weak side group, a running lane, and a sente exchange that may not be forcing; two candidate plans and a turning point; corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the opening plan
1. B C6 | W R14Black starts the opening plan from the lower-left corner; White takes the opposite corner instead of answering locally.
Intermediate records introduce candidate moves and a turning point where sente, liberties, or shape efficiency changes.
as the rule cue appears, turn notation into a question, after this opening shape: shape check record, choose a next record from the same game family instead of jumping to a different ruleset. The next page should feel easier to choose because this one has narrowed the reading job.
- 1Anchor the notation
as the level changes, read the reply as evidence, read 1. B C6 | W R14; 2. B K4 | W Q10 aloud, then stop at the first place the diagram shows corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3 and write that cue in the margin.
- 2Hold the boundary
as the level changes, read the reply as evidence, name liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order in plain language, then check whether B K4 still respects it after the reply arrives.
- 3Test the reply
as the level changes, read the reply as evidence, compare B K4 with W Q10. The record is useful when the reply makes the tempting mistake visible: cutting before counting liberties.
- 4Pick the next comparison
as the level changes, read the reply as evidence, the next page should preserve the game family and change only one demand, such as branch count, candidate load, or source checking.
The notation record task works on first shapes, early routes, development order, and when an early threat is real. Board cue: corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3. Level job: the record note compares candidate moves and asks why one move preserves tempo while another only looks active for one move. In Go / Weiqi, practice this habit: read liberties, shape, and territory pressure before counting captures. The record value comes from replaying the short line and naming what the opponent is threatening. Replay evidence: the Go board coordinates with Black/White turns line begins move one B C6 | W R14; move two B K4 | W Q10; inspect B K4.

a weak side group, a running lane, and a sente exchange that may not be forcing; two candidate plans and a turning point; corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the opening plan
- Key decision
- as the level changes, read the reply as evidence, compare B K4 with W Q10. The record is useful when the reply makes the tempting mistake visible: cutting before counting liberties.
- Mistake diagnostic
- in this example, avoid the broad label, the warning sign is narrow. If the explanation sounds like general strategy, return to corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3 and make it local again. In this Go / Weiqi opening plan, legality is not enough; the move also has to keep answering liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order.

What this record looks like
Before using a source, hold the answer lightly, intermediate readers get a Go / Weiqi opening shape: shape check record long enough to expose a reply sequence but still narrow enough to keep liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order in view. Board cue: corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3. 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 C6 | W R14; 2. B K4 | W Q10, which keeps the explanation tied to first shapes, early routes, development order, and when an early threat is real.
Position cue
a weak side group, a running lane, and a sente exchange that may not be forcing; two candidate plans and a turning point; corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the opening plan
Unique asset
A self-authored SVG record diagram for this Go / Weiqi opening plan marks corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3. It is paired with Go board coordinates with Black/White turns beginning 1. B C6 | W R14; 2. B K4 | W Q10. 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 C6 | W R14, 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 intermediate 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 C6 | W R14.
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; two candidate plans and a turning point; corner.
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 cutting before counting liberties.
How to read this record note
First replay: 1. B C6 | W R14. Keep the line short enough to say aloud before judging whether the move is good.
Then inspect: The notation record task works on first shapes, early routes, development order, and when an early threat is real. Board cue: corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3. Level job: the record note…

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: Shape Check: Read the first exchange as a Go / Weiqi board-location test. The local cue is corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3, not a memorized opening name.
Main habit for Opening Shape: Shape Check: pause before B K4, count liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order, and then test W Q10.
Mistake note for Opening Shape: Shape Check: a forcing-looking cut can strengthen the opponent if the outside group has fewer liberties. The durable position test is liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order.
Cross-game intuition helps only after the local rule is named. For this Go / Weiqi opening shape: shape check page, that rule set is liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order around B K4.
The record note has done its job when the reader can describe cutting before counting liberties in their own words and replay the first two entries.

- Use SGF move trees, player metadata, commentary, or whole game files only as context checks; this intermediate record note stays an original annotated record example, separate from outside scores, player metadata, and source commentary.
- Notation and turn order: 1. B C6 | W R14.
- Position job and trained mistake: a weak side group, a running lane, and a sente exchange that may not be forcing; two candidate plans and a turning point; corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3; liberty count, connection, and sente/gote order check for the opening plan / cutting before counting liberties.
- 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 + weak side group running lane sente exchange may not be + 1. B C6 | W R14 + cutting counting libertiesOpen 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 C6 | W R14 to compare notation form, move length, and record density against external material.
Keep this mistake visible while comparing: cutting counting liberties. 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 C6 | W R14. 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; two candidate plans and a turning point; corner approach at C6, pincer at Q10, and cut point near F3; 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 intermediate record note
Compare record length, annotation density, and the trained mistake: cutting before counting liberties. That is how this page explains what a intermediate record is for.
- 4Keep record note and outside record separate
Use u-go.net Game Records for real record lookup. This page remains an annotated record note and is not a copied tournament score or named-player record.
