I live in Los Angeles, California. I started playing Go in June 2001. I'm a member of the [ext] Santa Monica Go Club, where I help teach beginners to play Go. I am an AGA 1-dan. I play on KGS and IGS as chayashida. I also have a KGS blitz account, hayashida.

My Proverbs

  • The most inefficient stones are in the lid of your opponent's bowl.
  • Tesuji is Japanese for "Damn, why didn't I think of that?!?"
  • The Chinese Fuseki is more than three moves.
  • Just because your opponent is nodding doesn't mean you made a good move.
  • If you've read something out but it contradicts a proverb, do it anyway. It probably means one of three things:
  1. You probably don't understand the proverb.
  2. It doesn't apply in this case.
  3. You made a mistake earlier on.

At any rate, you'll learn something.
