Pro Game Reviews On Youtube / Cho Chikun

A collection of Youtube reviews of about forty professional games played by Cho Chikun. Cho is, as most will be aware, a famous Korean-Japanese former titleholder who dominated Japanese Go in the 70s - 90s. For most of the 80s, Go Ratings considers him to have been one of the world's top three players.

The games span his career, from an up-and-coming teenager in 1975, through 80s high-riding and his 90s "renaissance", to his later playing years in the 2010s. His most-featured opponents are Fujisawa Hideyuki, Kato Masao, Kobayashi Koichi, Otake Hideo and Takemiya Masaki.

Providing the skeleton of this body of work is Noah Doss' 17-game, 2015 series Cho Chikun Review. To this is appended Cornel Burzo's 2020 analysis of all seven games of Cho's 1983 Kisei match against Shuko.

These contributions are supplemented by two classic real-board lectures from Nick Sibicky, along with studies by professionals Yeonwoo, Young Sun Yoon and Ali Jabarin. Other videos have been drawn from Baduk Doctor, Bushi Go, dwyrin, Devin Flake, Simple Baduk and Telegraph Go.

With its focus specifically on Cho Chikun, this list is a subpage of the general library Pro Game Reviews on Youtube, which provides similar (though slightly less detailed) coverage for many other professionals.
