Female Team Open the GG Auction Cup

The 4th GG Auction Cup started yesterday. As usual, 12 players from both Senior team and Female team will compete each other in a win and continue format.

This year, the female team open the tournament with a victory. Kim Sunmi (2 dan) won the first game from Na Jonghoon (6 dan) by a big 10.5 points margin.


Kim Sunmi

The game opened with white early approach at move 3. Black abandoned it and went for the last empty corner. The game went with black taking the right side, maintaining a big influence, while white got black's upper right corner. Black attacked white's weak group at the bottom right, while letting his center group in danger. However, black managed to connect her groups at move 123. Perhaps white should connect at D8 instead of nobi.


Na Jonghoon

The game ended at move 237 with Kim Sunmi's victory.
