Learning Go
·3 mins
Final board state of my first 19x19 game, still one of my closest. We both forgot to take the open point at P11. The pandemic hobby I’m proudest of is learning how to play Go. I knew that it’s the East Asian analogue of chess, and I knew that Google’s AlphaGo program finally beat the top pros a few years ago, but I didn’t even know the rules until summer 2020.
