Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 312 The advantage is mine
"The balance of power in the center has changed. I can't act in the middle now. Instead, I have to make a move from below, otherwise the fate of the dragon will be in question."

The most frustrating thing about playing chess with Master Ke is that you always end up playing second.

Moreover, with this kind of backup plan, even if you want to take the lead, you simply don't dare to.

Judging from the current situation, Yi Zheng has to replenish his base now, because if he doesn't, the dragon will definitely die, and the whole situation can be said to end instantly.

However, once the adjustment was made, Yi Zheng's overall efficiency in the game completely plummeted to a dismal level! How could Yi Zheng, who was used to high-speed rail travel, tolerate this?

Yi Zheng gritted his teeth and stomped his foot.

Endure it!

A small leak will sink a great ship!
Don't be fooled by how happy Old Ke is now; he might be even happier later!
Old Ke was extremely nonchalant; he simply stuck a hand on it, and Bian Kong was immediately caught by Old Ke, who also managed to grab half of it.

Having reached this point, no one believed that Yi Zheng still had any hope of turning the tide.

AlphaGo has absolutely no weaknesses, so how can you turn the tide?
Furthermore, the rolling motion on AlphaGo was extremely enjoyable, and the third lane still had the first move.

After gaining the first move, Ke Lao continued to make a small, sharp move to the right, happily emptying the space.

If the normal and simple response at this point is to let Master Ke completely seal off the opening on the left, the game will be over.

Yi Zheng also knew at this point that this was a critical moment of life and death, and ordinary methods could not be used.

A normal approach will only lead to a slow death, while a 10-hand game will end the game completely and immediately enter the garbage time of throwing stones.

Yi Zheng was naturally unwilling to admit defeat so easily. He would have let it go in private.

My first online appearance with Mr. Ke shouldn't end so easily!
Even if I die, I want to die a horrible death!
Yi Zheng first made a move in the upper left corner, and Ke Lao naturally wouldn't give Yi Zheng another chance to use his strength, so he directly made a long move.

Without any hesitation, Yi Zheng clicked in from the middle.

Move 119, Black plays, point!

Rather Stick to your guns!
"Is this someone looking for a place to invest?"

Ethan looked at Yi Zheng, who had clicked directly into the chat, with disdain. What was the point of clicking in now? Did he think he could survive?
As for the so-called "resignation," it refers to a situation where, in many Go games, a player knows that he has virtually no chance of winning, so he will resort to some excessive tactics, making one last desperate move as a psychological buffer, and then resigning when the situation is completely ruined.

Old Ke has no psychological burden at all now, since Yi Zheng doesn't seem to have any chance at all, and he just needs to make steady moves.

Including some other aspects of his work, Mr. Ke's criticisms were also very sharp.

For example, with the monkey in the bottom left corner, Yi Zheng's future moves will change from being the first move to the second move.

Move 146, White retreats.

After looking at the current board position, Master Ke estimated that White had already gained a komi against Black.

I can't lose!

It's impossible to lose!
Can this situation really be exported?

If I could lose, I'd just eat the table.

Old Ke's confidence was not without reason. He was a level above Yi Zheng in terms of strength, and now that the situation was basically settled, he didn't think Yi Zheng could cause any more trouble.

Meanwhile, Yi Zheng stared at the chessboard, silently devising the final endgame moves in his mind.

At this point in the game, there's at most one chance left; it's all or nothing.

Thinking of this, Yi Zheng didn't hesitate at all and directly pried it in from the top.

Seeing this, Old Ke didn't hesitate and cut it off immediately. Trying to gain an advantage this way? No way.

I'm not some kind of artificial intelligence that will give you an endless half-point concession in the endgame.

I not only want to win, but I want to win the most!
We must be greedy for victory!

Moreover, no matter how you look at it, it's a loss for Yi Zheng to block after making that move; it seems like he has no chance left.

It's basically a death throes.

But the more you struggle, the more excited I get!

Move 150, Black plays a move that extends to the first line!

"Jie Jie Jie Jie!"

Yi Zheng silently calculated the changes above. A normal ending was definitely not going to work. The previous events had already suffered losses, and some other methods needed to be employed here as well.

However, Yi Zheng did not gather the pieces first. Instead, he opened the website's virtual betting system and bet all his money on winning.

"You generated electricity? You only lost one game, and you're just going to throw away all those billions of Fox Coins you've accumulated?"

Seeing Yi Zheng finish all his bets, Old Ke was stunned for a moment, wondering if he had gone too far and knocked Yi Zheng senseless.

Betting on yourself to win at this point is like lighting a lamp in a latrine—it's pointless.
If Yi Zheng had pressured you right from the start, you would have thought he was just trying to show his stance. But why wait until things are at their worst and things are already hopeless before showing your stance?

But Yi Zheng didn't say anything, he just kept placing pieces!

Move 151, Black plays, point!

Seeing Yi Zheng click in directly, Old Ke couldn't help but shake his head: "Not bad, but it's a pity. It won't affect the overall situation now."

Ke Lao still used the most aggressive approach, but after playing, he found that Yi Zheng had actually gained the first move.
"You've set a little trap here, huh? You're really persistent."

Old Ke realized that he had overlooked something: Yi Zheng's sticky move, which seemed like a counter-move, was actually the first move.

No matter what you do, Yi Zheng will definitely get the better deal on the sides or corners.

However, it's not a big deal; the situation is still in my favor! It's just that I'm a little unhappy.

At most, we'd only lose a point or two.

In any case, the situation is still turning against us!
The advantage is mine!

The doors to the Victory car are welded shut! Even Ah Wei can't kick them open! I said it!

Thinking of this, Old Ke glanced down and decided to send all the men below away, forcing Yi Zheng to follow him with a series of orders.

If you dare to make me feel bad, then I'll make you feel even worse!
It's very frustrating for a player to be led by the nose by a bunch of first moves, and when Kuroki Teruto saw this series of first moves, he felt like his PTSD was about to flare up.

Because in the game between Kuroki Teruto and AlphaGo, it was a bunch of commands. Kuroki Teruto felt like a puppet being controlled by AlphaGo, without even his own soul. He had to play wherever AlphaGo pointed.

AlphaGo not only frantically climbed the second lane itself, but also completely destroyed Kuroki Teruto's board position, turning it into a chaotic mess, a series of devastating blows.

Kuroki Teruto couldn't help but shudder and quickly banished this evil memory from his mind!
terrible!

AlphaGo is not human at all!
