Depending on how good you are, of course. Go is a game that I would love to learn properly, but I think the only real method to do this, unlike in Chess, is to be taught by someone who is much better than you. This is simply because tactics are much less important compared to long-term strategy, and the art of 'knowing' what is safe and what isn't. I think you also have to play an enormous number of practice games too. I think the learning curve is pretty steep after the first few matches. Cheers, Col
