Anyway.... There are few Kalah players because It Is a game that you love or hate.
I like Azul and ForestShuffle, both great games with a good part of strategy but they are ruined by the "luck factor" so when I discovered kalah it was love at first sight, but it depends... Bao or Bobail are similari games but I do not like them... Like Go or other strategic abstract games....

Regarding tournaments that can be found... They are 4 Stones and It is ok for me, but not without pie rule! How can people play 4 Stones and no pie rule, It has no sense

Kalah doesn't seem to be a very popular game here, but Arena is a bad idea. Strong players do not meet each other.

Yeah, Trepiastok already told me the same thing a long time ago but 6 Stones are too much for me...
I prefer 4 at the Moment, Just to gain some Elo, each time I delete my account I have to start from zero again...

Kalah-4 relies too much on the first move. You need to start with Kalakh-6, and then move on to 5 and 4.

Я могу проанализировать партию, разумеется, в моём понимании.

I can analyze the game, of course, in my understanding.
