Challenge Match Game 5: “Renewal”
Challenge Match 8-15 March 2016 Game 5: “Renewal” Commentary by Fan Hui Go expert analysis by Gu Li and Zhou Ruiyang Translated by Lucas Baker, Thomas Hubert, and Thore Graepel Renewal Lee Sedol’s triumph in the fourth game attracted a surge of interest in the match throughout the world. Even the Western media, including CNN and the BBC, came to conduct reports and interviews. For Go, this level of attention was utterly unprecedented. More and more people started trying to learn and understand the game. To give just one example, Go Game Guru, the largest Go website in English, reported that its daily visitors had jumped tenfold. In Korea, the heart of the craze, the media could talk of little else. For the next two days, the top three items at every news station invariably had something to do with the match. After winning the fourth game, Lee Sedol had risen to the status of a national hero. His brave request during the press conference after the fourth game was particularly inspiring. Normally, the two players would have chosen colors in the fifth game by nigiri, but Lee asked to play Black. The reason was simple: although AlphaGo prefers White, Lee had won as White already, and wanted to prove he was equally capable of winning with Black. His courageous spirit deeply moved the team, so for the fifth game, there was no need to choose colors. Lee would take Black. After the fourth game, people had finally seen that AlphaGo was not invincible. Though the outcome of the match had already been decided, the result of the fifth game now seemed more important than the winner of the contest. -

Universi in Bianco E Nero
El go1 Hoy, nueve de setiembre de 1978, tuve en la palma de la mano un pequeño disco de los trescientos sesenta y uno que se requieren para el juego astrológico del go, ese otro ajedrez del Oriente. Es más antiguo que la más antigua escritura y el tablero es un mapa del universo. Sus variaciones negras y blancas agotarán el tiempo. En él pueden perderse los hombres como en el amor y en el día. Hoy nueve de setiembre de 1978, yo, que soy ignorante de tantas cosas, sé que ignoro una más, y agradezco a mis númenes esta revelación de un laberinto que nunca será mío.

Go Seigen-Hashimoto
Chapter 7 Go Seigen-Hashimoto Hashimoto Utaro is probably best known of two things: his leadership in the Kansai Ki’in and his long Go career. According to the Go Player’s Almanac (Ishi Press, 1992), he probably holds the all-time longevity record for a professional (and he’s extending this record; he was born in February 1907). Being a 3-time Honinbo title winner and the loser in the 1st Kisei title match (to Fujisawa Shuko), Hashimoto has also composed a tsume-go problem a day for several decades! Some of his games with Go Seigen in his early years were associated with some interesting stories. In 1933, Kitani Minoru and Go Seigen spent a summer together in Nagano (Mrs. Kitani’s hometwon). When the autumn arrived, their return to Tokyo marked the be- ginning of the New Fuseki Era. (Of course, both players had had thoughts on new openings and had tried some new moves before the summer; a revolution doesn’t occur in one day or two.) Just at this time, Yomiuri Newspaper sponsered a Japanese Go Championship to celebrate the publication of the No. 20,000 of the newspaper. It was a knockout tour- nament in which sixteen 5-dan or above players (i.e. perhaps all the top players at the time) participated. The winner would earn the bonus to play a game against Meijin Honinbo Shusai (9-dan). The finalists were Go Seigen and Hasahimoto Utaro. As mentioned above, Kitani and Wu had just brought New Fuseki to the Go world, and this new style of playing immediately became popular. -

Go Books Detail
Evanston Go Club Ian Feldman Lending Library A Compendium of Trick Plays Nihon Ki-in In this unique anthology, the reader will find the subject of trick plays in the game of go dealt with in a thorough manner. Practically anything one could wish to know about the subject is examined from multiple perpectives in this remarkable volume. Vital points in common patterns, skillful finesse (tesuji) and ordinary matters of good technique are discussed, as well as the pitfalls that are concealed in seemingly innocuous positions. This is a gem of a handbook that belongs on the bookshelf of every go player. Chapter 1 was written by Ishida Yoshio, former Meijin-Honinbo, who intimates that if "joseki can be said to be the highway, trick plays may be called a back alley. When one masters the alleyways, one is on course to master joseki." Thirty-five model trick plays are presented in this chapter, #204 and exhaustively analyzed in the style of a dictionary. Kageyama Toshiro 7 dan, one of the most popular go writers, examines the subject in Chapter 2 from the standpoint of full board strategy. Chapter 3 is written by Mihori Sho, who collaborated with Sakata Eio to produce Killer of Go. Anecdotes from the history of go, famous sayings by Sun Tzu on the Art of Warfare and contemporary examples of trickery are woven together to produce an entertaining dialogue. The final chapter presents twenty-five problems for the reader to solve, using the knowledge gained in the preceding sections. Do not be surprised to find unexpected booby traps lurking here also. -
Honinbo Shusai 9P Black: Go Seigen 5P Result
The Game of the Century 9 1933-10-16 1 Tokyo, Japan 2 6 7 White: Honinbo Shusai 9p 8 Black: Go Seigen 5p Result: W+2 Diagram 1: 1-11 This match was sponsored by 5 Yomiuri Newspaper. In the preliminary game, Go Seigen defeated the strong opponents Kitani Minoru 6p and Hashimoto Utaro 5p, thus earned the right to play this memorable game with Honinbo Shusai Meijin who hadn't played any 10 game for almost ten years. This game started in Oct. 1933 and didn't finish until Feb. of next year, during 3 11 the process the game was adjourned for more than 10 times, and it c b a 4 created a furore in this Newspaper and at that time it was also regarded as the game of the century. In the recent Go world, we never saw a game which had produced such a great impact. 1: At that time, Go Seigen was just 20 years' old, in this match with Shusai Meijin, he started with the unprecedented opening of 3-3, star and tengen, which shocked the Go world. This special play was once criticized by some people: this is not polite to Meijin. As for today, this kind of criticism is just worth laughing. However, Mr. Go always holds firmly to his play, because Mr. Go just wanted to break away from all Shusaku's openings of 1, 3 and 5 and establish his own style, which is the "New Fuseki" he invented together with Kitani Minoru, so this game had another special meaning, it was a historical game between the new and old opening. -
Xi Jinping's Inner Circle (Part 2: Friends from Xi's Formative Years)
Xi Jinping’s Inner Circle (Part 2: Friends from Xi’s Formative Years) Cheng Li The dominance of Jiang Zemin’s political allies in the current Politburo Standing Committee has enabled Xi Jinping, who is a protégé of Jiang, to pursue an ambitious reform agenda during his first term. The effectiveness of Xi’s policies and the political legacy of his leadership, however, will depend significantly on the political positioning of Xi’s own protégés, both now and during his second term. The second article in this series examines Xi’s longtime friends—the political confidants Xi met during his formative years, and to whom he has remained close over the past several decades. For Xi, these friends are more trustworthy than political allies whose bonds with Xi were built primarily on shared factional association. Some of these confidants will likely play crucial roles in helping Xi handle the daunting challenges of the future (and may already be helping him now). An analysis of Xi’s most trusted associates will not only identify some of the rising stars in the next round of leadership turnover in China, but will also help characterize the political orientation and worldview of the influential figures in Xi’s most trusted inner circle. “Who are our enemies? Who are our friends?” In the early years of the Chinese Communist movement, Mao Zedong considered this “a question of first importance for the revolution.” 1 This question may be even more consequential today, for Xi Jinping, China’s new top leader, than at any other time in the past three decades.
