So far, this works out fine: As my opponents in the local Go club and in the Go Workshop (which I instruct at the local school, voluntary work) get stronger and stronger—and whew, how fast those kids get stronger: recently four of ’em cleared away prizes in Hamburg at a 9x9 tournament for beginners <happy ’n’ proud>—I simultaneously get better at playing against handicap stones
