There is a picture on his AnecdotesThis was written by AvatarDJFlux on another page: Nakayama is well known as one of the professionals that most toured the West to spread and teach Go. A delightful person, he's always ready to play amateurs (he even played me - a one-to-one game - during the European championship in Terschelling!). He's never hard-spoken when confronted with our stupid mistakes, but always says something encouraging, like: "Ah! New Joseki, neh?!", or: "Oohh! Stroong move! But maybe... this (playing his move...) better!!!" MarkD: Actually I managed to get a big smile and a "Ohh very bad move" from him. After that he showed me a great variation. He is very friendly and helpful. This is a copy of the living page "Nakayama Noriyuki" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
