Hello guys...long time no see, but I am back!

The second game for the 54th Kuksu was played on 14th January and like the title says Choi Cheolhan won. Cheolhan playing as white had to face the chinese opening, played by Yi Changho. Btw, this is the only title, which Changho is helding.

 My impression of this game was Yi played for moyang(moyo) but couldn't handle white well. White could invade always in black's moyang and lived or connected his groups. I think it was hard for both and Yi Changho resigned after 166 moves and he has to win the next games to defend his only title.

RESULT: W+Resignation

54th Kuksu - first game

Another message. The 54th Kuksu started yesterday on 12th January 2011. The titleholder Yi Changho had to face Choi Cheolhan - good friend of Yun Yeongseon and also they were in the same Baduk school.

 

The game just finished after 136 moves, which Cheolhan resigned. Cheolhan (b) played for influence it seems and built up a wall but he couldn't use it useful.

In the middle game black had some problems and had to run for his group. Changho played well and could kill a big group through ko. After palying some ko threats black resigned, as of the bad position.

The next game will be played tomorrow, 14th January 2011. You can watch it on WBaduk and BadukTV live here on this blog - at 10:00 o'clock (Korean Standard Time - 02:00am CET): http://beginningpath.blogspot.com/p/baduk-tv_04.html

RESULT: W+ Resignation
