I like attacking but always easily lose.
Is there any knack of judging big and small areas?
answer
Attacking is important. If you get your opponent’s stones or attacking opponent’s stones to take the opponent’s area, you will win. But that wouldn’t work all the time. Even though the opponent’s stones are not weak anymore, if you continue attacking as you think you can get stones, you might make wrong moves and your large area will be taken.
For someone who has the tendency to attack too much, it is better to play and think of the next few moves ahead while attacking and after attacking and try to think of what you really want to do. And then, you can observe the whole board. If you can think of the timing of taking advantage while attacking and search other large area at the same time, I’m sure your percentage of winning will be increased.
