Hock Doong and Xinwen reviewing the game of “Shi Hong VS Haidar” ↑

Xinwen said that everyone looks for a miracle in the game of Go when they know that they are losing. One way to enjoy Go is the enjoy playing ‘Fuse’, it could help to turn the table of the game. Enjoy every phase, ‘joseki’ in the early game, ‘moyo’ in the mid game and ‘fuse’ near the end game.

(if i remembered correctly ^^” )
