Way To Study Go Free

I have posted several of my own .sgf files. Officially it is to get as many comments on them as possible but given how little traffic has found me it is more so I can review my own games. You can actually find .sgf files of old go games from people who know what they are doing easily enough!

You can review old games from Honinbo Shusaku, Honinbo Dochi (in a game that is from 1711 almost 300 years ago!), or modern go meijin like Cho Chikun or Cho U (Zhāng Xù, 張栩, 张栩).

Finding these files is easy. I found this trick on 361 Points. All you have to do is Google search filetype:sgf. If you want to find a certain player like Shusaku, search Shusaku filetype:sgf. In no time you'll have lots of study material from true Go masters not this 22 kyu neophyte!
