Oteai

    Keywords: Culture & History, Tournament

From 1927 through to 2003, the Oteai was the tournament in which Japanese professionals earned their ranking. Games were played throughout the year according to a regular weekly schedule, and the players received a fee for every game played. An unusual feature of the Oteai is that all games were played without komi.
