Greetings
I am just a beginner. This is my second time trying to learn the fascinating game of go. First time I played with someone who was pretty good (not sure of his rank) and lost (and even won, with enough handicap!) many games over lunch. However, I could not improve, and got frustrated when it seemed I was just guessing at what the next move might be. I can recognize really bad moves, but often i had/have trouble working out what to do. Anyway, now I am coming back to go again... and hope to learn alot from this forum!

Re: Greetings
Just play as many games as possible without concern for the result and you will improve as rapidly as any beginner.

I think the 'without concern' Is the part that I missed the first time.

Re: Greetings
Welcome to the forums. The best way to improve is to post a few of your games in the 'game analysis' subforum.
