Maybe Risk and Othello struck your fancy as a child, but now you're too smart for them and find their strategy opportunities unchallenging. If so, you just might be a fan of Go. It's a game that involves two players, round chips and aboard that has a simple grid. The rest lives in your imagination. And, if a group in Skokie has their way, there just might be a place where you can pay to play. [Trib login: gapers/gapers]
