Go, Baduk & Weiqi Hats

A 19-by-19 grid leaves plenty of room for unreasonable ambitions. The AGA rules hosted by the British Go Association place stones on intersections and also describe smaller 13-by-13 and 9-by-9 boards. These Go, baduk and weiqi hats take that spare setting and fill it with imaginary borders, real-estate envy and a fierce personal attachment to every liberty. Life and death give the jokes a specific foundation. Under those AGA rules, players try to agree on dead stones after passing, and disagreement resumes play. A group can therefore be dead without its stones already having been physically captured. The British Go Association's teaching guide explains that two eyes make a group safe, while seki can preserve groups without two eyes. The resting-group design turns that serious evaluation into a player's magnificently stubborn denial. The collection starts with GO PLAYER and BADUK badges, then moves through liberties, restaurant indecision and the search for the divine move. The liberty claim and the stones-own-more-real-estate confession each receive a second colorway. A WEIQI design closes with the initiative-minded sente motto. Choose a custom embroidered dad hat for a club regular, an online player or the person who can read a board and still cannot choose dinner.
