A Game of Territory

When I was living in Santa Fe, New Mexico, a fellow dan player and I used to play once or twice a week in a courtyard downtown. From time to time a young man would come by on his bicycle, watch us in silence for a little while, and then continue on his way. We invited him to play, but he declined.

After a year he finally broke his silence. We were in the fuseki. "Go is a game of territory," he informed us. "You are playing all over the place. You should make secure territory in the corners."

Again we invited him to play, but he declined and rode off.
