Games of Cho Chikun in the NHK Cup

The NHK Cup is one of the oldest lightning go tournaments in Japan. It started in 1954 on the radio, but since 1963 all games have been televised every Sunday. This is a knockout tournament for 50 players: the top prize money winners from the Nihon Ki-in and the Kansai Ki-in. Title holders are seeded into the second round.

The list of games is complete.
