Question re Go term for being lead around

[jraggio]

A while back I recall hearing a term (possibly Japanese) that meant to lead around like a dog on a leash, or perhaps it was to follow around. Are any of you familiar with this term? It is a term used to describe the play of beginners that simply follow the lead of the more experienced player.

This is the closest I could find, but I don't think this is it.

No, but I call it "following your opponent (like a slave)". Beginners
must learn that playing elsewhere can be good.

Thanks, Robert. I have seen that expression too in books and at Sensei wiki. It was a few years ago when I was last interested in the game and could have sworn there was a word for it. It's not that important, but was trying to remember as I discussed Go with a coworker. When in doubt, Tenuki ;-)
