I always disable analysis for live games, I want to learn to read better so if analysis is disabled I have no choice. I never disable it for correspondence games though (can it even be disabled for those?) - conditional moves are too useful.

I think I need to learn some more joseki, but I have no idea which ones are important and there's far too many of them to just start going through everything in Kogo's dictionary. Anybody got any tips on how to pick which ones to study? Basically, I know how to approach 4-4 stones, and I know what to do and what result to expect when my own 4-4 stones are approached, but recently I've been seeing a lot of 3-4 stones in my games, and I have no idea what the common patterns are with those or what results to expect from different approaches, so I think 3-4 stones are a huge weakness for me and I always get nervous when my opponents first and second moves are on the 3-4 points.

I use josekipedia.com a lot in media res a lot. Basically, I know a fair number of standard joseki now, but if I see a situation where I don't know how to react or if I want to see which invasion joseki suits me best, I mess around with it and see what I like. I have a decent memory so a lot of the variations I look up tend to stick so I use it less and less as time goes on.

I found 38 basic joseki + a decent joseki reference (I use Rui Naiwei's Essential Joseki) to be a nice starting place. Basically, 38-basic gives you a good idea of what you're trying to get out of a corner, what an even exchange looks like, and when you might steer one direction or another. Then you play games, and after the game, look at a somewhat longer reference like Essential Joeski to find out "what should I have done in this corner I butchered?". The online references are of uneven quality - I like them as an additional "what do some people do here", but, for me, they're hard to use for more than that.

I guess this was announced some time ago, but we all seemed to miss it."Ars Technica posted:Google's DeepMind AI division will face off against humanity's number one Go player, Ke Jie, according to Chinese state news agency Xinhua. Ke Jie is currently the top-ranked Go player in the world.

"I'll play Go today!" First opponent stops playing after ~10 moves. Second game times me out despite saying I have 8 seconds left. "Maybe I won't play Go today!"

I'm around 10k (OGS, mostly correspondence; vacillates between 9k and 11k depending on whether or not I'm a winning streak or a losing streak), and I've been stuck at 10k for around 8 months, after having made consistent monthly progress before that. I feel like my openings are generally better than my opponents', and (if we get there) I usually play a better endgame than they do (I can usually see a few mistakes they make, and it seems like I typically make up around 10 points in the endgame). When I lose, it seems like it is because I screwed up fighting in the middlegame. I don't typically lose big groups (though it happens), but often let a few important stones get cut off and captured, or give my opponent huge influence, or nullify my own influence, etc. I have Davies' "Tesuji" but struggle to use it (I also have the companion "Life and Death" and find the problems in that much easier to read out, even though it's supposed to come afterwards). I also have Kageyama's book, which maybe I should revisit again. Should I just be powering through these problems I already have, or is there something else I should be studying to either fix my bad middlegame fighting or learn a style in which fighting is less important?

get some of your recent games reviewed, a dan player should be able to point out some bad habits and maybe some concept youve been missing will click. if you ask for a review in chat on ogs, or post a thread asking for one, someone will usually give at least a brief look to it and point out obvious flaws.

I'm looking for a good android go app. Anyone have a recommendation? I'm looking for things like tesuji, L&D, bot games, tutorials, whatever, really.

Elygo is cool, many l&d problems for you. There's a KGS client for android, too. I've also got Master of Go installed. Elygo for lot and lots of L&D seems the best, though?
