Cho Chikun's hair is looking relatively tidy for him. I wonder what that means for the competition.

He's hiding his true strength by trying to appear less windswept and interesting than normal, although who can say whether he succeeded or not?

Anyways, I'm really looking forward to these games ^_^

Maybe something is lost in the translation, but somehow hearing Lee Changho categorized as a "legend" makes me feel old. :cry:

All these guys are past their prime. Legend probably refers to the times when they were winning everything.

The Australian Open is currently being played in Melbourne. In the Legends Doubles tournament it is the first to 4 games who wins the set instead of 6 games.

Makes me think that if these guys are so old that they are legends then maybe they should be playing on a 13x13 board to preserve energy.

:o :lol: ;-)
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).

I think his hair usually starts out relatively neat but gets more and more wild as he plays :)

1 hour and 1m one time. If 2 players ties after 10 games, whoever won between 2 players will be winner. If 3 players ties, then purse will be devided by 3.
