Re: Lee Changho books game commentary books?

The way Lee Changho played when he was at the top of the world is not modern Go any more. I would recomend Invisible the games of alphago if you want something closer to modern Go.

There are so much changes happening because of AI that I don't know if there really are any good books on modern Go ...

Re: 21st century travel boards

I guess what I'm saying is, grip. Imagine running your finger across a mat made of rubber or the kind of material that pen grips are made of. So it's not that they are unable to move, absolutely they should be able to move, after all it is a normal Go board.

Well I'm ...

Re: question about Foxy

It would be really nice with a Foxy forum here since there are quite a few things worthy of discusion on that topic. For example all the pro/ai Games that are being played there and the different playstyle they have compared to kgs/ogs and also what are we supposed to use these mysterious Fox coins ...
