Go: 50-50 split between me and AI

Chapter 11 11. The Old Man Playing with the Urchin

"Just a little bit, just a little bit!"

"Only about five eyes."

"Three eyes or so."

"A glance and a half..."

As the chess game continued to progress, black and white chess pieces kept alternating on the board, Wan Fang exhausted all the official tricks he had learned in his life, and the situation was getting closer and closer.

closer and closer……

I always feel that victory is right in front of my eyes, obviously so close...

However, it seems that it will always be a little bit worse.

Even if I try my best, it seems that I can reach it, but it is like a mirage.

And the sky dimmed when no one noticed.

This game of chess lasted nearly six hours.

"How's the situation?"

"The distance between the eyes is too close to count."

"White wins by one eye and a half."

As a professional nine-dan, Hong He quickly counted the number of items on the chessboard.

Hearing this, the surroundings suddenly became bustling.

"How is it possible? Professional chess players actually lost?"

"Do professional chess players actually lose?"

"It was so ruthless before the game, but now it's a big embarrassment."

"Maybe it's a mistake?"

And the leader of the No. [-] middle school looked at the chessboard in disbelief. Before the match, he said that Ying Jie couldn't last fifty moves, but the opponent actually defeated the professional chess player.

"I lost."

Wan Fang's expression throughout the game ranged from relaxed and leisurely, to confused when he didn't know when he fell into a disadvantage, to desperately chasing after him with bloodshot eyes in the official stage.

until the last despair.

Wan Fang's entire face, counted and counted, can be said to be as dead ashes.

"Your chess skills are not weak."

Ying Jie covered his chess jar and said something silently.

It's just that I'm stronger.

"Did you do it on purpose? The official stage deliberately released water, gave me hope again and again, and then crushed the hope.

Revenge for my previous provocation? "

Wan Fang looked at Ying Jie in disbelief. When he was clearly an official, he saw countless opportunities and the other party gave in countless times.

Let yourself feel that you are only a short distance away from victory, but in the end you find that the victory you thought was so close is actually a mirage.

Can be seen, but never held in the hand.

The closer you get to hope, the more thoroughly you lose.

The other party is like an adult teasing a child with candy, offering the candy over and over again, but taking the candy back easily, deliberately using this to torture himself.

The entire game was under the opponent's control, and he had no chance at all.

how so?Just an amateur chess player.

"No, I just chose a move that will definitely win.

The first rule of the Ten Tactics of Go is not to be greedy to win. "

In the final stage, Wan Fang and Ying Jie started the robbery. The burden on Ying Jie was very small for this robbery.

But Ying Jie endured this temptation and chose the safest way to end.

Looking at the end of the chess game, as the referee announced the result, whoever was around applauded first, and finally the whole field applauded thunderously.

In everyone's opinion, the invincible professional chess player actually lost, and Ying Jie was like a warrior slaying a dragon.

Ying Jie created a miracle!
Chengdong Middle School also created a miracle.

3:1 victory over Tzu Chi Secondary School!Advance to the finals.

"Great! I knew you could win!"

Seeing Ying Jie standing up, Lu Jingjing rushed over and hugged Ying Jie.

Ying Jie also took advantage of the situation and leaned against Lu Jingjing, and the game of chess was played for nearly six hours.

After a full six hours of high-intensity games, Ying Jie's physical strength was basically approaching its limit.

Don't feel like playing Go is not tiring at all. Mental exercise sometimes consumes more energy than physical exercise.

There are even anecdotes of go bloody games where more than ten catties of meat were lost in one game.

Next time this kind of competition, I have to prepare some high-calorie food such as chocolate in advance, otherwise I won't be able to last such a long time.

Don't be surprised, it's not uncommon for players to eat chocolate, drink coffee, etc. during the World Series finals.

When the rules of Go were not perfect, there was even an off-board trick of putting smelly socks next to the board.

Even when the opponent can't figure out the situation clearly, they will judge who is better in the situation based on your expression.

It even involves a series of factors such as psychological warfare.

Talking with chess players is indeed a very interesting thing, much more interesting than playing online chess in the previous life.

It's almost 7:00pm now.

Originally, the organizers wanted to determine the champion in the afternoon. After all, in normal amateur games, it is difficult for everyone to play a set for more than an hour.

But I didn't expect a game of chess to be played for such a long time. After the discussion, the final could only be postponed to tomorrow.

But at this time, the other finalist team directly chose to abstain.

A team that beats professional chess players has no hope of winning at all.

In this way, Chengdong Middle School won the Fangyuan City Go League Championship trophy without bloodshed in the last game.

Except for Ying Jie, the other people standing on the stage holding glasses and taking pictures seemed a little unreal.

"It's amazing! It's really amazing. Ying Jie actually defeated a professional chess player. Am I dreaming?"

Zhang Zhipeng, who was standing next to Yu Renjian, couldn't help complaining: "Can you pinch yourself when you are dreaming?"

Just me and you don't hurt, how do you know if you are dreaming.

"Haha, you can brag if you have a bull in the future. Ying Jie and I will defeat professional chess players together!"

"Like you and Jordan scored 57 points together, right? Stop bragging."

"What a bragging material. When I go back to school the day after tomorrow, I promise the whole school will know about it."

"But it's really dangerous! In the end, I was almost caught up in the official stage, and the professional chess player is still really good."

Hearing this, Ying Jie shook his head and didn't speak.

At the final official stage, I have calculated all the changes clearly, discarding the small and choosing the big. In fact, the other party finally opened the robbery, and I just simply eliminated the robbery.

It seems that Wan Fang seems to be infinitely close, and he almost catches up, but his shortfall is firmly locked by his own calculations.

Ever since he entered the official stage with an advantage, Wan Fang had no hope of winning.

"It's a pity, it's just that close."

Different from the lively photoshoot next to him, Wan Fang still sat on the seat alone, looking at the chess game in disbelief.

It is still difficult to accept my failure.

The chief general of No. [-] middle school couldn't help but shook his head watching the final chess game.

This kind of half-eyed victory is too disappointing.

It seemed that he was about to win, but he was so short of breath.

It's more uncomfortable than being killed by others in the middle game.

"It's just my carelessness!"

Listening to the whispered discussions of the people next to him, Wan Fang blushed and slapped the table and stood up.

Wan Fang already understood the gap between himself and Ying Jie, but out of his so-called dignity, he still chose to find a fig leaf for himself.

It's just my own carelessness and bad luck.

"No, you didn't underestimate the enemy at all, this game of chess is the best one you have played recently.

This is the gap in chess strength. If you deny the gap, refuse to admit it, you will never improve. "

"Who are you?! Dare to..."

Hearing his words that the fig leaf was exposed, Wan Fang turned his head to look angrily, but saw the person he least wanted to see.

The leader of his own Go club team, Honghe Jiuduan.

"You... why are you here?"

Hong He didn't answer Wan Fang's question, and pointed at the chessboard with the folding fan in his hand: "It seems that the white chess has won by one eye and a half, but it is actually the opponent's complete victory.

During the official stage, the young man holding the white chess had already counted all the items, discarded the small and picked the big, and firmly grasped all the chances of victory.

This is obviously an old man playing with a naughty boy, you have no chance of defeating him at all.

If he played more aggressively and robbed you, he might even win twenty or thirty items, but he suppressed his killing intent and chose the safest way to win.

It's like the 40-year-old state of Dugu Qiubai in the novel, the epee has no front, and the tricks don't work.

As a teenager, his chess skills are very strong, and his chess style is the only one I have ever seen in my life. It is hard to imagine that this is just a teenage boy with such a sophisticated style of chess.

The same age, no, if this is his normal level, there is no one in the new generation of chess players who can match him! "

Hong He didn't say what he said completely. According to his feelings just now, he didn't even feel 100% sure that he could defeat this boy.

It seems a little too alarmist to say it. The top five chess players in China dare not say that they are 100% sure of defeating a teenager who has not yet become a professional chess player. I am afraid no one will believe it.

However, Hong He really felt this way. If he played against this young man, all he could do was to kill in the middle of the game, lead the situation to the most complicated state, use computing power to force the opponent, and introduce the rhythm he is most familiar with. , Defeating the opponent with rich experience.

Looking at the silent Wan Fang, Hong He couldn't help shaking his head.

"Don't you understand, this boy's chess is one step ahead of ours in layout, what he lacks is more powerful calculations and experience in the middle game.

This is a young man who is expected... no, will definitely aspire to the top of Go.

Wanfang, don't think that everything will be safe once you embark on the career path.

On the road of Go, the boy just now is already ahead of you, he is a peak you are destined to climb.

Failure is not terrible, but if you don't admit failure, you will never make progress!
Chase with awe and challenge with trembling.

When I go back in the evening, I will tell you about today's game of chess. This young man's overall awareness and understanding of weight and thickness are worth learning even for me. "
