Default Re: 9x9 beginners go

Traditionally in a 9x9 the center is an excellent play. Being three or four spaces out is good in general, but the center is only five spaces out from all four corners!

Going only two spaces out, like g7 or c3, is typically considered too bunched into the corner, giving up influence on the rest of the board.
