Go up one level in this thread


Go looks very easy when the game first starts, but after you get a few pieces on
the board and have the possiblity of capturing all of you opponents men it then
becomes very difficult. By winning one position you may leave yourself wide open
for a bigger loss later on.
With a 19 x 19 board and no set rules as to where you can place you chips, at
least initially the game is extremely difficult to do any long range planning.
I have followed both Go and Chess for years and although Chess is getting to
look real nice, Go is still playing on what we in chess might call an amature
level with no real progress to be noted.
