The Insei League on KGS has Australia’s own An Younggil 8p participating. In the KGS English Room on February 27 (1pm GMT, 11pm Brisbane time), there will be a live review of his game against Ilya Shiksin 8d. They invite everyone and anyone interested to come and watch; they’re hoping to get a record number of observers, and will repeat the event later on if they do.
