Honinbo Dochi
Keywords: People
(1690-1727) Fifth head of the Honinbo house, becoming Meijin Godokoro in 1721. A pupil of Dosaku.
Robert Pauli: A quote from Go Monthly Review, Nov. 1969, p.21:
...
Meijin Dochi was born in Tokyo in 1690 and learned to play Go at 7. Two years later he became a pupil of Honinbo Dosaku, Meijin. After the death of his master and teacher in 1702, he was kept under guardianship of Inseki 8-dan, 4th master of Inouye School.
...
It was a pity for the young boy that he had to follow his guardian's intention perfectly; sometimes he was obliged to be beaten in the pre-arranged games. Probably he was instructed by his senior master to do so. It was a worst time for Go.
1719 he became 8-dan, they say.
