Pro games on small boards

Post by TheBigH »

I will be travelling overseas soon on business but I don't want to completely neglect my study while I'm away. I'm taking a small 10x10 magnetic travel board with me and I would like to study some pro games. Are there any collections of professional games on small boards?

Yes, you can download a couple hundred pro 9x9 games on the AGA website.

I tried to find them but failed miserably. :oops:
Any hint to where on the site this can be found?

Is this collection overlapping with the games found at
http://gobase.org/9x9/

By the way you need an account on GoBase to view those. I have an old one
so I'm fine, but I am unsure about the current status of the site.
If anyone knows anything for certain, please share.

The GoGoD database has over 120 9x9 games. We also have pro 13x13, 15x15, 17x17 and 21x21 games, as well as a collection of Sunjang Baduk games.

Yeah, sorry. I don't know why I was so sure they were on the usgo site, but all that's there is 4 commented 9x9 games. Maybe I was talking about the go base collection, but if so I'm not sure what to say about insane's observation... I've never been a go base member. Maybe I'll just zip them and post them here.
