Yi Ch'angho games

Post by k1ndofblue »

Hey all,

I play through lots of pro games and I have been focusing a lot on Yi Ch'angho lately. I was wondering if there were any particular games that he was especially known for or even any games that you have played through and thought were cool? I have Smartgo so have a large repository of his games.

Thanks!

I really enjoyed the two Master Play books I got from Kiseido on Takemiya and Go Seigen. There's one on Lee Changho http://senseis.xmp.net/?MasterPlayTheStyleOfLeeChangho

From what I understand they usually have about two games annotated across ~30-35 pages each.

The 2006 Samsung final was memorable, but that is more due to the masterful play of Yi's opponent, Lou Xihe. If you like ko, those are great games. In game 3, Yi wins the ko but loses the game.
