I'm giving @gamer00 seven stones here.
I think he was off to a good start. The corner was big but the power he got in exchange was valuable, too.
This game ended in a jigo (a draw). We both had 27 points in the end. Well played!
As usual, @gamer00's younger son was with us. In addition to a game of go with five stones on the 9x9 board like here:
He and also I had three games of Go-Moku (five-in-a-row).
(Yellow just played the stone on furthest on the left. Game over.)
It was fun.
@gamer00's son promised to bring a chess board with him next time. I'm looking forward to playing against him. I know next to nothing about chess opening theory but I can read ahead. I've never been a club player let alone participated in a chess tournament but I have some experience playing one friend of mine for fun after school when we were in middle school. If the go ranking system were applied to my chess level, my first guess would be I was a 13 kyu at chess.
I remember once playing my wife's two nephews who were 8 and 9 at the time. They'd play at a chess club on a weekly basis and they had been taught opening theory. They were negotiating amongst themselves all the time, sometimes in a heated manner. It was so much fun to listen to them despite not having practically any knowledge of their language at the time. In the middle game, I felt I was clearly behind because I had and still do not have much knowledge of openings because I wasn't and I'm not a chess player. But I checkmated them in the end. One tactical slip and I saw a way to exploit it.:D
