Today we had the opportunity to learn about the game, Go, and experience a live competition. It was extremely intense and held at a very nice hotel in Beijing. I had no idea that the game existed before today, and that it is fairly popular in China and a few other countries. The two men were competing for a large cash prize, so there was quite a bit on the line for them!
After viewing some of the match, we learned about the history of the game and even got the opportunity to play a bit. It was very interesting and some of us downloaded the app on our phones so we can continue to play.
