Alexandr Dinerstein 3p, the first in a brand-new series of AGA video commentaries with Michael Redmond 9P and Chris Garlock, Managing Editor of the American Go E-Journal. In March 2016 the two teamed up to provide live commentary on the historic 5-game match between Lee Sedol 9P and AlphaGo -- available on the AGA's YouTube Channel  -- and now plan to do go video commentaries on a regular basis. Each video commentary -- produced by Michael Wanek -- will be accompanied by sgf commentaries that will include comments and variations by Redmond, enabling the video commentary to focus on the major points in a shorter format. We hope that you enjoy this new series and look forward to hearing your feedback; email journal@usgo.org with your comments or questions. The AGA is also currently working on producing video commentaries by other professionals on Master games; stay tuned for updates on those soon.
