Kwon Hyojin Broke The Streak

Cho Hunhyun went overdrive when his team needed it. Being down 2-11 against the Female team, Cho Hunhyun won 8 consecutive games to narrow down the gap. But everything has an end, and so does Cho Hunhyun's streak as he lost to Kwon Hyojin (5 dan) of Female team.

 Kwon Hyojin who played black sacrificed 5 stones early in the opening to get a thick position in the center. She later attacked Cho's group with black 65 and kept on attacking until Cho's right side became a victim. Cho Hunhyun resigned at black 185. It seems that black has a combination to save her early sacrificed stone if white escaped with F5, but not helping the stone would give black enough territory to win.

 Here is the game record:
