| 45 The SWOT Analysis of this position is as follows:<br><br> | |
| 46 <strong>Black:</strong><br> | |
| 47 <strong>Strengths:</strong><br> | |
| 48 - Three almost certainly secure groups in the upper left, upper right, and lower right.<br> | |
| 49 - In the lower left there are only Black stones thus far, but that’s only a minimal advantage because that area is still so open.<br> | |
| 50 <strong>Weaknesses:</strong><br> | |
| 51 | |
| 52 - The three B39, 45 stones are almost certainly “captured”.<br> | |
| 53 - Although the three B11 - 21 stones have excellent shape and center access, they are still unsettled.<br> | |
| 54 - The three B25-51 stones are also somewhat weak, and that’s compounded by their proximity to the B11-21 stones. This gives White the potential for driving them toward each other, | |
| 55 and then setting up a potentially devastating splitting attack.<br> | |
| 56 <strong>Opportunities:</strong><br> | |
| 57 - Black’s only really significant attack potential exists against the W30 - 52 group. | |
| 58 - There is also some limited potential for an attack against the W10 - 22 upper right stones, whose shape is still incomplete.<br> | |
| 59 - There is a significant territorial potential on the left side, where there are only Black stones at the moment.<br> | |
| 60 <strong>Threats:</strong><br> | |
| 61 - The 3 B25 -51 stones are still insecure.<br> | |
| 62 | |
| 63 - So are the 3 B11 -21 stones, albeit to a somewhat lesser degree.<br> | |

| 71 | |
| 72 <font size=+1><strong>Settled Territory:</strong><br> | |
| 73 Strictly speaking, none as yet although at least some will almost certainly be realized from each of the first 4 items below.<br> | |
| 74 | |
| 75 <strong>Territorial Potential:</strong><br> | |
| 76 - Less than 10 points in the upper right corner.<br> | |
| 77 - About the same in the upper left corner.<br> | |
| 78 - A bit more in the lower right corner.<br> | |
| 79 - Possibly 10 or so points in the lower left.<br> | |
| 80 - A presently unquantifiable amount on the left side, which will depend on who is first to play there, and where.<br> | |
| 81 | |
| 82 <br><br> | |
| 83 <strong>White:</strong><br> | |
| 84 <strong>Strengths:</strong><br> | |
| 85 - The big lower right group on the edge is secure and stable because of the 3 “captured” Blacks.<br> | |
| 86 - The upper left corner formation has excellent shape and space.<br> | |
| 87 - Although the six W10-22 upper right stones have incomplete shape, at the moment they’re relatively strong because the 3 Blacks immediately below are somewhat weaker.<br> | |
| 88 <strong>Weaknesses:</strong><br> | |
| 89 - The 5 W30 - 52 stones are solidly connected and have a high liberty count (6), but no shape or eyespace, only limited center access, and are already enclosed within Black | |
| 90 Sector Lines! But White has Sente, can lean on B53 to make Sabaki if needed, and has the at least equally weak B25-51 stones to fight with, these stones aren’t in any immediate danger.<br> | |
| 91 | |
| 92 <strong>Opportunities:</strong><br> | |
| 93 - The potential exists for:<br> | |
| 94 - an attack on:<br> | |
| 95 - the B11 - 21 stones<br> | |
| 96 - the B25 - 51 stones<br> | |
| 97 - An invasion in the left bottom.<br> | |
| 98 | |
| 99 - Most of the lower left side is still virgin territory.<br> | |
| 100 <strong>Threats:</strong><br> | |
| 101 - The 5-stone W30 - 52 string is in grave danger of being enclosed, with little eyemaking potential!<br> | |
| 102 - The W10 - 22 upper right group still has very incomplete shape.<br> | |
| 103 <strong>Settled Territory:</strong><br> | |
| 104 - About 10+ points on the lower right side.<br> | |
| 105 <strong>Territorial Potential:</strong><br> | |
| 106 | |
| 107 - A possible 10 or so points on the upper right side.<br> | |
| 108 - Perhaps 10 points on the upper left edge.<br> | |
| 109 - Perhaps 10+ points in the lower left corner.<br><br> | |
| 110 | |
| 111 <strong>The main focus of play now:</strong><br> | |
| 112 Both side’s major weaknesses are in the same area - the interface between the W30 - 52 group and the B 25 -51 group on the lower side, so that must be the immediate focus of play!<br><br> | |
| 113 | |
| 114 That situation involving two weak groups is necessarily quite tactically oriented, albeit with a strong strategic component.<br><br> | |
| 115 | |
| 116 And those tactics must necessarily dominate at least until the fate of the opposing weak groups is established, it’s not feasible at this early stage of the fight to lay out a definitive plan | |
| 117 for how to proceed after it’s been resolved. But once the fate of those opposing groups of stones is better defined, a new SWOT analysis will not only be necessary but will then also be able | |
| 118 to better specify the path the game should take from that point on! In that, the possibility for aa splitting attack against the two weak Black groups mentioned earlier may well become significant.<br><br> | |
