HCØ Go: I will be trying to start some Go activity at the institute where I work. I've made some posters that I'll print and hang up once I've found a date. Then I hope some people will show up so that I can get some real-life opponents.

Anonymous: Go clubs are always nice - but why not join one of the two existing clubs in the Copenhagen area - [ext] http://www.kgok.dk or [ext] http://jakobsen.dyndns.dk/edo/pages_danish/

Tas: Okay, it wasn't that clear. The point was not as much to start a go club, as too spread the knowlegde of the game, especially among people I see every day.

I hadn't been able to find a go club in Copenhagen, but frankly I haven't tried real hard either. Thank you very much for the links. I'll check it out. If I mannage to get some people interested in the game, I migth bring them to the club then.

Result of a high handicap game vs. my farther

Here's the result of a game I played against my farther today. He has never played go before so I gave him a masive handicap of 25. In the beginning I was able to win some ground, but his play improved through the game. If we had had more time I would have tried an invasion in the lower left corner though.

I know this is not the way to play beginners. But tried for curiosity's sake. I had to overplay to an eksteme degree, and play all kinds of TrickPlay I could think of; this could really be a source of BadHabits

I don't remember if I went so far as to play SelfAtari, hoping he wouldn't see it.

Tamsin You can certainly invade in the lower left. Look up the three three point invasion for the details...

Tas: I know... since I was no better of in the top invasion, which took quite a lot of territory, before it was finally shut in. 25 handicap is a lot! But we ran out of time and desided to end it there. The game was by no means serious anyway.

With an invasion there i would not stick to the joseki though. I would go for more territory.
