first one this is the part one the pretty much
this is what the goal board
looks like and we have a two players
one player with black stones and a one player with white stones
and the goal board consists of 19 horizontal lines
and 19 vertical lines with 361 intersection points on the board
and black goes first,white goes next
so every stones it has to be played on the intersection points
it can't be in the square or on the line
so it has to be on the intersection points
it takes turns to put down the stones on the board
once you play the move on the board
you can never take it back or remove,it it's there permanently
so you have to think before you play
once you put it ,you there's no regrets
okay so then what's how do win the game
was to ultimate go for this game and
this game in China it's called the Weiqi
and it was originated from China 4000 years ago
and a lot of people say
this is pretty much like our human lives
and the character of way means the surrounding
so this game is pretty much like a surrounding game
so the first example is once you surround one area on the board
any area on the board
all of the surrounded area it's your
it's your territory
and every intersection point is your score
we call it point
so now how many point does black have
one two three four five
and we have a 3 here 3 times 5 as a 15
so at the end of the game whoever surround the most territory wins the game
I'd say it weights around this corner
and white only gets night point and like
what I mentioned earlier at the end of the game we're going to cut all of your
points as your territory who have
whoever has the most wins
so this game is also called a surrounding game
and I
have mentioned that a lot of people said
this game is like our human lives
so we
need to and pretty much everything every
planet every animal needs to have air to
breathe
so every stone on the board also
has an air and we call this liberty
so
if you put the one stone on the board
this still has a 4 liberties
sometimes I like to call it air the once the air
all of the ears are blocked by black and
this stone is dead is it captured
so how about this move we have a special name
of this move
the move of the floor you capture
if white ignored this myth
you're gonna capture it next so this
move is it called Atari move
the move the for capture it's called Atari so
once you see Atari move you have to be
careful
because you have to play one
more stone to save that stone
so after you played here now you have a 1 2 & 3
liberties
so then it's impossible for
for black to capture now
how about I'll
have a two white stones on the board
then how many Liberty does white have
ok let's try it so we have to block here
and here here and here and here and here
so two
white stones have a six liberties
how
about the dagger no directions are there
the liberties
do we need to play these
four moves to capture two whites
the answer is no
because the liberties
is like a similar like the road for the stone to escape
so let's say if I don't
block here
if white plays here wait take
wait it skipped from this direction
but if I block here even though I can play
here but there's no Road here to connect
these two stones so then these four
diagonal directions or these four
diagonal moves are nada liberties
how about I have a three stones on the board
three white stones on the board how many
Liberty does what have nah we have the
block here and here and here here all
the way we have to completely block
white and take or capture these three
stones
5：55
so these three white stones have
eight liberties and there's one more
important thing for it to remember once
you block the last air or the Liberty
you have to remember to take them and
remove them from the board and keep them
on your side never return the stones to
your opponent because at the end of the
game not only we're going to count how
much territory you have plus how many
stones you capture so whoever has the
most in total wins okay so when we have
a three stones on the board straight
there are eight liberties how about I
have three stones our bend is this still
eight to answer is no even there they
have the same amount of stones on the
board but they have a different amount
of liberties because let's try it
so I have the block here since the
along here and here and here and over
here here here and here and how many
black stones I use I've used 1 2 3 4 5 6
7 so in conclusion these been three
white stone only have a 7 liberties not
4 liberties we talked about earlier it's
because these two stones share the one
Liberty at the same time so that's why
this shape has one less Liberty than
this shape ok then now I have a question
for you since black plays first and
white play next so which color do you
like better
probably everyone likes to play black
because black goes first the black has
an advantage and so we have a special
rule for that and at the end of the game
after we cut all of the lip all of the
territory black and white and then we
had to either subtract two seven and a
half points from Black's territory or at
seven and a half points to White's
territory
that's called a KO me because black goes
first black has an advantage to start
the game but at the end in order to be
fair white has to add seven and a half
points or subtract a seven and a half
points from from black okay so in go is
unlike other four games other board
games every piece have a certain way to
go but in go game every piece every
stone it's equal to before you put down
on the board so you can basically can
start anywhere you want but how about
you start on the first line is it smart
think this is the edge of the board
that's the last line on the board in
order to not be captured if we start on
the first line we only have three
liberties if we start from the corner we
only have the two liberties
if we start from the second line about
second line let's say star from fourth
line then this cell has it for liberties
so where do we start
and you got the answer already of course
we never start from the first line and
also that lines called a deadline
because that's very easy for your
opponent to capture you so remember we
never never start from the first line
okay so as I mentioned that earlier you
can start anywhere you want but there's
only one area you can never play
that's called illegal point once a stone
is captured or the space without any
Liberty left that spot is called an
illegal point because once black plays
here there's no more Liberty left that
means the stone dies automatically so
then that spot is called illegal point
then how about this move is this an
illegal point the answer is no that's
not a legal point because after white
black plays here there's still one more
Liberty left so once you have an error
where Liberty on the board you're
allowed to play there but this is
definitely not a smart move because
after you go here what will capture that
move but still that's not an illegal
move you can still play okay so after
black plays here and what play ignored
that move and the question is now it's
the next movie a legal illegal point or
not a legal point the answer is that's
illegal point because after black goes
here there's no more air left all of the
heirs or the liberties are already
blocked by white so that spot is a legal
point okay
and black stays ok so since this is a
legal point I cannot play there how
about I'm gonna spend use a couple moves
on outside and then is this a still
illegal point for black
or not illegal point maybe it looks very
confusing so the answer is this is a not
illegal point why because let's look at
white shape over here these two white
stones only have one Liberty left so
once you block the last Liberty what's
gonna happen to that stone you're gonna
capture it so it means this is not an
illegal point anymore instead this is a
capture move
so once the space where the spot is a it
becomes to a capture move the illegal
point it's no longer illegal because you
can capture your opponent's stones and
the last important thing is once your
capture your opponent's stones please
remember to take the stones before your
opponent played the next move down
because it happens to a lot of my
students game so black played here and
black forgot to take these two stones
and after a few rounds and then when
they look back this situation nobody
knows who captures first because blacks
also don't have any Liberty left so
remember once you capture you have to
remove the stones first okay that's
pretty much about our first part of
introduction of the go health hope you
all like it
and don't go away we're gonna start the
part two next
