Kensaku Segoe
Kensaku Segoe was a professional Go player.Biography
Segoe had Go Seigen, Utaro Hashimoto, and Cho Hunhyun as pupils. He also authored numerous books, such as his Tesuji Dictionary and Go proverbs Illustrated. An internal quarrel in the Nihon Ki-in led to his becoming an isolated, if very much respected, figure. His participation in competition post-1945 was quite low.
He committed suicide on July 27, 1972, shortly after his pupil Cho Hun-hyun returned to South Korea for military service.
