not for noobs you need speed to do this one!and make sure your opponent is trying to tech up or this strategy is no use....

first kind:first of all you need to send in a scout early and haraas him like building on his gas or attacking his buildings/miners.and if you are sure he is not using any kind of quick attacks/rushs then you can make a pylon near his mining area(out of his sight view)and build some cannons,you need to build at least 5 of them to contunue building into his sight range and when he see it he will attack it but the ones you already built will attack them(make sure he is not terran)and keep going in make more pylons make cannons in his base andmostly your opponent will surrender.NOTE:this one is rather unsuccessful if he saw your miner and didnt kill it make sure take 2 of them one is to haraas him(delaying him)and other is to build make sure he dont see your other one.

second kind:try to tech up as fast as you can until you can make shuttles and bring 1-2 probe and 2 zealots with you in the shuttle,
go to his mining area and unload them(NOTE:must not let him see,do it secretly,but you must be sure that he is going to tech up)make pylons and cannons make at least 5 and go in make more he see it and will attack same thing but if you think he has more units that can beat your cannons then make more.expand your cannons into his base and he should be surrendering but if you sees fleeing workers you must track them down and kill them because they might build a new base.

Building over the gas is probably the best thing one can do against a teching opponent. Really, I dont see any reason to cannon rush, or even try and place a cannon in their bace for that matter.

Those are all minerals spent better, elsewhere, more efficently.

Peace
