At the last round of stage 1, Wang played Kim Hyeoyimin of Korea. Kim who played white stacked a big territory at the upper board. However, Wang's position at the bottom board was thick. Kim tried to invade at move 52, but the invasion didn't turn out well and the invading group was killed. Black later found black 131 and things went downhill for white afterward.

With this, Japan is down to their last 2 players, Mannami Nao and Xie Yimin. Korea is down to Park Jieun. While China is still perfect. Wang will play Mannami Nao at the beginning of the second stage. Can either Japan or Korea stop China?

Cho Hunhyun Won Game 15

It seems that Female team is having a difficulty right now with Cho Hunhyun keeps on taking down their team members one by one. After winning 3 previous games, Cho Hunhyun won game 15 and collected his fourth victory in 5th GG Auction Cup.

Xie Yimin found herself in a brawl with one of the strongest female player in the world, Park Jieun (9 dan). Both played very well, but Park got the lead and Xie resigned at move 257.

Yoshida Mika went for a duel with Park Jiyeon. Yoshida as usual played the solid way. I like the combination she played to help black group on the right side. Yoshida Mika won her second game in this tournament by 7.5 points.

The biggest surprise of the day came from the match between Mukai Chiaki and Cho Hyeyeon. Mukai who was the dark horse of the match won by a slim 0.5 points margin from Cho, thanks to the 7.5 points komi. With Mukai's victory, Japan won the battle by 2-1.

1st Huanglongshi Cup Starts!

The first ever Huanglongshi Cup started in April 7. Huanglongshi Cup is an all female international tournament. The participants are female pros from 4 countries, China, South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan. Each country made a team consists of 3 players.



Here is the line up:

China;
Li He(3d), Tang Yi(2d), Chen Yiming(1d)

Korea;
Park Jieun(9d), Cho Hyeyeon(9d), Park Jiyeon(2d)

China;
Yoshida Mika(8d), Xie Yimin(5d), Mukai Chiaki(4d)

Taiwan;
Hei Jiajia(5d), Zhang Kaixin(3d), Su Shengfang(1d)

Day 1 started with China vs. Japan and Korea vs. Taiwan.

Li He of Chna met the Triple Crowns of Japan, Xie Yimin. Xie who played black traded her group in center for bottom left corner. White (Li He) started a ko fight with white 204 and used the aji of her bottom left group well to win the ko fight. I think this is where Xie lost the game. Li He won by 6.5 points.

Yoshida Mika (8 dan) of Japan met runner up of the 2nd Female Mingren, Chen Yiming (1 dan) of China. Yoshida played a great game. I like her move at 126 and 128 which attacked black's group at D13. Black saved that group, but soon Yoshida found a bigger group. She attacked Chen's group at the center and eventually the whole black group was in trouble. Yoshida won the game by resignation.

Tang Yi (2 dan) of China met Mukai Chiaki (4 dan) of Japan. The game was full of fighting. I think Mukai got over ambitious and exchanged her group at P16 for black's group at M14. Tang Yi won by resignation and China won the match by 2-1.

Cho Hyeyeon (9 dan) met Su Shengfang (1 dan). Su is a new professional who was promoted at January 2011. She is also still young, about 14 or 15 y.o (born in 1996).
Su played well, but I think Cho is still stronger and Cho finished the game in 169 moves. South Korea won 3-0 from Taiwan.

Rui Won Her Third Game

Rui Naiwei is such an iron wall. Being the last player standing from China team, it's such a hard work to bring the team victory, especially because team Korea still has 4 players. However, Rui showed her skill and experience by taking down 3 Korean players.


Rui Naiwei (left) vs. Park Jiyeon (right)

Park Jiyeon is the third Korean player to challenge Rui, after Kim Miri and Lee Hajin failed to stop her.

The game opened with Rui Naiwei, who got white, played a rare pincer. The sequence up to move 25 is rather in a fighting spirit and as a result, white got a big corner while black got thickness. White started to reduce black's moyo with move 46, I wonder if Q14 is better than R14.

A big fight started with black 85. Park Jiyeon aimed her gun at Rui's (not so) weak group. Rui found a way out and Park resigned at move 186.

Here's the game record:

Jimmy Cha

Jimmy who has 5 winning streak record in this championship didn't disappoint his fans. He beat Park Jiyeon by 3.5 points.



The game was difficult and full of fighthing. It seems that Park Jiyeon is a fighter.



Here is the game record. Jimmy Cha (white) vs. Park Jiyeon (black). Result: W+3.5

Half Point and Fourth Victory

What's the connection between half point and four victory? Well, simple. Park Jiyeon (2 dan) won her fourth games at the 4th GG Auction Cup in a half point game against Kang Hoon (9 dan).



I must say that this game is very entertaining. Lot of fight and exchange happened. Park who played white opened the game by taking 2 corners and a settled position in the right side. The first trade came when black let white captured three black stones at the upper left for white's invading stones.

White made a good use of her captured group. She played a smart combination from move 94 to 100.


I personally dislike Park's outfit today :(

Not only white who played a nice combination, black also did it. Black started with a probe at move 139. White responded it normally, then black played a fierce cut with 141. The sequence went until move 172 where black threatened to capture white's group.


Cho Hyeyeon and Park Jiyeon

After a hard 310 moves, Park won the game.

Witht her fourth victory, Park Jiyeon breaks her personal record at GG Auction Cup. Her best streak so far was three times at the 1st championship. Let see if she can break the 4 consecutive barrier for female players.

Park Jiyeon Won Again

Park Jiyeon (2 dan) the second player of Female team at the 4th GG Auction Cup bring her team one step closer to victory by defeating Jang Sooyong (9 dan) today.



The game was very territory oriented. Black set a big moyo early in the game. White invaded the moyo starting with the probe at move 34. At move 81, black played K1 to connect her group. I wonder why she didn't play M1. Perhaps I miss a variation where black will get caught if she played M1.

White's invading group survived from black's strong attack. In return, black got a big influence toward center and Park successfully convert the influence into territory. She won the game by 4.5 points.

Female Team Is Leading

News from the 4th GG Auction Cup. The battle of gender is heating up. This time, the female team has the upper hand with 2 consecutive victories from Park Jiyeon (2 dan).

At the third game, Park beat Mr. Jeong Daesung (9 dan) by resignation. The game provides an interesting variation of Taisha joseki at the bottom left corner. Up to move 36, everything is usual. However at move 37, Park who played black extended once more instead of playing a one space jump (ikken-tobi) which is the joseki continuation.
White attacked severely and black went for a ko fight to help her group. A big trade was played early where black gave up her bottom right corner to capture white big group at the bottom left.

The game ended at move 237. Black won the game by resignation.
