Life In 19x19

Thanks so much, I will go there sometime this week to purchase it.

I'm looking for a foldable goban and stones that I can purchase online. I would prefer a cheap price, because the main reason of buying a foldable goban is so I can bring it around without it being *too* bulky, and I am not worried about the quality. I live in Hong Kong, so it needs to ship there ...

That's a good idea, and since all games have jumps, as EdLee pointed out, I'll post one of my next games here then.

This is a game I just played on the IGS server against another 13k player. My opponent disconnected, giving me the win, but I knew I lost the game. Any review on my game would be much appreciated. I am posting this game because even after reading Opening Theory Made Easy a few times, I am still ...

I have been reading Opening Theory Made Easy for a few days, and it uses one space and two space jumps to run away/attack a lot. Since both jumps can be cut, especially the two space jump, why would it be a good way of fleeing or attacking? In what sort of a position would these jumps be safe from ...

I am new to Go, and I don't know the right way to study. It seems as though one has to just sit down and memorize many josekis and its variations.

Book reviews of 38 Joseki from Kisedo says that the josekis are sometimes outdated. Is it still useful if I study the book now?

38 Basic Joseki offers a representative selection useful if you invest 4 hours per joseki. It is a possible start for joseki learning, but nowadays there are also softer ...

Your review seems to be a mix of positive and negative thoughts about the book. Do you think it is worth getting? I was thinking of getting it along with many other books from Kisedo.
