Default Go

I became familiar with the board game Go a couple years ago and got excited because it looked very interesting, went out and bought a board. Then, I couldn't find anyone to play with, in fact no one has even heard of this game. Does this frustrate anyone else seeing as it's the most famous (right?) game in the world and it's extremely interesting and challenging?

I have never played the game, just read about it and found it interesting.

Good Luck with the game.

Itīs a very interesting and challenging game. Iīm sure there are places on the web where you can play it online.

BTW, it that much complicated (not the rules, but the strategy) that unlike chess there hasnīt been yet a computer to beat the best humans.

Best regards

Hey Bruiser,

I have the same problem as you. I want to become a better Go player, but nobody I know has ever even heard of it before. It's a great game.

The way I see it, Go is a lot like Soccer. Which is why no one in the US has ever heard of it.
