Hard to be Insei
According to his profile info, Bojim 9d is Jean-Mathieu Malouch. In
European Go Database he is ranked 1 dan. It's hard to believe that european 1
dan can become 9d on kgs. Well, earlier today he defeated supertjc 8d but still
Bojim plays rarely on kgs so his real rank is not stable. I believe he should
be solid 6-7 dan on kgs.
In his info written in French: "Dur Dur d'être un insei." -
"Tough to be a Insei". In kibitz he said he's insei now and already
spent 4 months studying Go as insei. It's interesting to see how strong
he can become after his studying.
Liu Yuanbo 2p (MilanMilan) made a review after the game. I left only his
comments and variations. Enjoy!
