	Sensei's Library: Honinbo
		During the Edo period the Honinbo (本因坊, Hon'inbō) was the head of the Honinbo school (originally founded by Honinbo Sansa).
		The Honinbo title is the oldest Go tournament in the world and in some ways still the most prestigious in Japan, though the Kisei and Meijin big titles have larger prize funds.
		Due to the importance of the Honinbo as one of the "big three" titles in Japan (along with the Kisei and Meijin), there are several paths of automatic rank advancement through it in the Nihon Ki-in new promotion system.

	Honinbo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Honinbo (本因坊, Hon'inbō) was the name of one of the four major schools of Go in Japan.
		Upon the closure of the school, the title Honinbo came to be used for the champion of the Honinbo Tournament, which is now an annual event in honour of the school.
		The Nihon Ki-in decided to name players who had won the Honinbo tournament 5 times or more in a row (making them Honorary Honinbo) would be given the Honinbo prefix after Cho Chikun won the title 10 timesd in a row..

		The strongest go player of his day and the founder of the Honinbo school of go players (one of the four major schools that began in the early 1600s and dominated the go world for centuries), Nikkai is better known as 1st Honinbo Sansa (1559-1623).
		This is probably the very board on which Sansa taught the great warlord Oda Nobunaga (1534-82), who first began unifying Japan after centuries of civil strife.
		Nobunaga was so impressed by Sansa's go skill (the warlord took five stones from Sansa) that he called him "mejin" or master player, which is said to be the origin of the term's use in go.
