Profile
My real name is Laurens. I'm
a 25 year old guy from The
Netherlands. I've studied mechanical
engineering and I’m now studying
aerospace engineering in Delft.I started playing Go in
October 2005. A friend of mine
played the game and when I was looking at him solving
tsumego during lunch break, he invited me to his Go club
(Go
club Harderwijk). At the end of 2006 I moved to Delft. Since
that time I play at the
Go Club Delft
as well as occasionally at
Go club Seki in
Den Haag (The Hague).
I really enjoyed the game and wanted to play more than
once a
week at the club. Therefore I immediately started to play online
after I learned the rules. Mostly I play on KGS, but
I also play an
occasional game on CyberOro, IGS
or Tygem.
Since I started playing online I've played over
5000 games on
KGS (using several accounts). This brought me to a mid dan
rank (approximately 3dan KGS).
I have
also participate in several real life (international) tournaments including
the 2009 European Go Congress.
I'm also the Clan leader of the Kisei Clan, an online
go club at KGS. I
occasionally
organize events/lessons for the Clan, and once every three month there is a team tournament (called
the Clan Brawl) between the different clans on KGS.
In September 2010 I was invited by
A. Dinerchtein
to join the
Korean-Style League
on KGS,
both as participant in the A group and teacher for the lower
groups.
