In this day and age of electronic games, there are still a few games left to play without the aid of technology, but with the use of good old fashioned brain power.  Similar to Chess or Checkers/Draughts, “GO” is an attack-capture board strategy game played on a 19″ x 19″ wood grid for two players.  This size board is typically used for tournament play.  The game originated in China about 2500 years ago using a 17″ x 17″ grid board, but changed as it became more prevalent in Japan and Korea.  Beginners usually start with a 9″ x 9″ or 13″ x 13″ board.
