60+ lessons on youtube from "Weiqimaster"

Post by Tami »

Hi everybody,
Here's a teacher on youtube called "Weiqimaster". I don`t know if you know about his lessons, but they look pretty good. He *might* be the same guy who does "Go Commentary", but judging from his English I think he is another player. Anyway, I think his lessons are very good, short and easy to understand.

I didn't know about these, thanks! The videos are easy to learn from. I have to get past the croaky voice sending me to sleep but that's more about me than weiqimaster.

These are very good lessons! Some rather complex josekis are shown in quick way and attention is given to "natural" moves that don't work. Some other joseki resources pretend that those truly bad moves don't exist. With them you are left to figure it out on your own and it is not really reasonable. But here there is some head start for figuring out what is going on.

Sadly no lesson has been posted for 9 months.

I've only looked at the first one so far, but I like his style. His presentation is clear, and somehow his unusual throaty voice makes what he's saying sink in deep. I'll be going through the rest later for sure.
