Have you heard of the mind blowing passion in Vietnamese Baduk? Here I brought a new for improving that.

The 1st WBaduk Cup Vietnamese Online Baduk tournament is being held from the last weekend, 25th of May, and total 80 people are taking part in it. Considering that the number of Vietnamese National tournament was about 60, the size of this online tournament is quite big. Participants are all over the Vietnam from 11 cities, and 16 among 80 are female players.

The preliminary is composed of 8 groups' knock-out tournaments, and it is also divided by gender, which means there are 6 male group tournaments and 2 female group tournaments. After the preliminary, the 8 league winners play a Swiss league to figure the top of the tops out.

Top 8 Players will be given the different playing fees for each round according to the game result, and there will be also prize award for the 1st to 8th.

Kang-wook Lee 8P has been living in Vietnam for 4 years, teaching, spreading and organizing Baduk events such as LS Vietnam Baduk Championship 2012. This WBaduk Cup is one of the activities that he set up. He proposed for holding a Vietnamese online Baduk tournament, and WBaduk decided to sponsor the tournament with pleasure.

He thanked to WBaduk saying that the participants are happy with playing the tournament. However, as tournaments cannot be held without an organizer, I would like to thank to Mr. Kang-wook Lee 8P for his commitment.
