Post subject: | Looking for a book with collected games of Shuei |
/title Is there something like this? I don't really need commentary, so it doesn't have to be in english, I'm basically looking for most games/$. Any help highly appreciated. €: Forgot, I did find this: http://senseis.xmp.net/?HoninboShueiCom ... Collection . But it seems pretty costly as I only found a seller in china, from a european shop soemthing like this might be ok. |

If you just want most games, you could get GoGoD? http://gogodonline.co.uk/ John Fairbairn has published some books on Amazon store and you can get one book on the Nihon Kiin e-gobooks. After that, the shipping will be expensive to get any other books. |

Here is a link to the SL page for a Chinese book, supposedly Shuei's "complete" games: http://senseis.xmp.net/?HoninboShueiCom ... Collection I have no idea whether this book is still available or how to get it. GoGoD probably has more games, anyhow. I have long enjoyed playing through Shuei's games but I must say they aren't easy to understand. There is a tendency for his play to look like he isn't doing anything. It is like a martial arts master who defeats attacker after attacker without any effort. |

Thanks. I didn't miss Johns book, but its 11$ for 21 Games, at that rate getting the other book from china would have been cheaper, since I don't care too much about the commentary(also I don't own a Kindle). Gogod seems to be the best deal, oren could you tell me how many of his games are included in there? gowan wrote: There is a tendency to for his play to look like he isn't doing anything. It is like a martial arts master who defeats attacker after attacker without any effort. I've read that as well, which was the main reason I became interested in his games. Crazy fighting games are fun to watch/replay, but I find it hard to get a lot out of them when it comes to pure learning effect. Besides, I'm really more of a quiet player myself(but given my rank that doesn't mean much^^). |

In smartgo kifu (which has Gogod included) it's 176 as Honinbo Shuei, 100 odd as Hayashi Shuei and some more with other names (don't remember how to get full counts now...) |

At the publication of John's books, GoGoD had 284-games of Shuei. You can take the game records and make your own books, for example: Attachment: Attachment:

The most complete collection of Shuei games I know of has 292 games and was published in Japan in 2007 under the title 完本 本因坊秀栄全集 (全4巻). This is a very rare and expensive set if you ever happen upon it. |

Well, that seems reasonable. Thank you all, I think GoGod it is =) |
