After four and a half years I am finally a SDK! (Single Digit Kyu, see http://www.emptytriangle.com/archive/39). I know I have a long way to go in order to be shodan, but I can’t avoid feeling so proud for hitting the 10k barrier!
I got stuck at 12k for a long time, without playing all the games in tournaments and feeling very stressed, but this year it has been very different:
- February: didn’t play Barcelona’s tournament, but got interested in the game again
- March: played 4 out of 6 rounds in Paris’ tournament; lost all of them and went back to 12k
- April: played Madrid’s tournament; 3 wins and 2 losses, getting back on track…
- July: European Go Congress (EGC) in Sweden; outstanding result! 5 wins! went up to 10k
- September: Korean Ambassador Cup in Alicante; 3 wins out of 5, but enough to break the barrier and reach 9k!
- October: 1st World Mind Sports Games (WMSG); +123 points! 8k!
Thank you to all the people who supported me! I am back on my feet and wanting to test my strength against all of you! Let’s play Go!

Congrats!!!
