Hey Guys,

I was wondering what your favorite living pro is ? And what's the reason for that ?
My favorite is Kato Masao, especialy his earlier games where he's really a killer :-)

But since he has passed away I would have to choose someone else.

Then my favorite would be Gu Li, I love how he fights :rambo:

If you want understand why I like Gu Li and you don't know him, you might want to look at this lecture about a game of him: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUnapcyxPhk

Cheers,
Otenki

Sakata Eio. He's like the ultimate "Kill me, I dare you"-player

Iyama Yuta and Yuki Satoshi. I became a fan of Iyama Yuta when I was watching him play Yamashita Keigo in the 36th Meijin-sen. But I don't think me being a fan of Iyama Yuta has been a well kept secret. :mrgreen:

I became interested in Yuki Satoshi because of a post by John Fairbairn (http://www.lifein19x19.com/forum/viewto ... =13&t=3306).
