The game started by Cho surprisingly played a Japanese joseki in the upper right corner. Usually the joseki is played by Japanese pro.

The game went to be a fighting game (which is usual for game between Rui and Cho) with a fight in the upper board. The game became complicated. In the end, a semeai involving two big groups occur. Whoever win the fight, will win.

However, Cho Hyeyeon played a double ko, which ensure her victory.

I'm a "victim" of Hikaru no Go. Too. ^.^ I shortly after got myself a Go board. Now I play on the server KGS. If anyone were to just try the game they would probably love it as much. I usually visit this site: Game Of Go
