ab.f.z Cup

Post by Shenoute »

Lately I've been watching many videos of the ab.f.z Cup posted on the Baduk TV Youtube channel. I know no Korean but the games are pretty fast (around an hour) and generally quite bloody, which makes them great fun to watch (even if the commentators show much less variations than in the NHK cup).

Apparently it is a tournament between female inseis and young pros but I'm not even sure of that. Does anyone has some infos on this tournament?

It's a female tournament for amateurs. No pro inside normally.

Thanks! I was a bit surprised to see pros being beaten repeatedly by inseis, but it make smore senss if they are amateurs.
