Lee Sedol wins Samsung Cup 2-1 against Park Yeonghun

The game record below is from the third round which just ended: Lee Sedol won by 1.5 points, in a game in which Park Yeonghun seemed to have a slight lead when yose started.
The variations are the ones I found on the Cyberoro server, where the game was broadcast live.


Update:
Thank you
Nexik for pointing out to what looks like a
variation that shows Park’s last chance to win the game, and thank you Smurf for pointing out to the fact that
GoGameWorld.com has a commentary of this game by Yoo ChangHyuk in their sample section (look for “[Sample Game] 12th Samsung Cup final game 3: Park YuongHoon vs Lee Sedol.”).

Lee Sedols style sure is interesting. I watched one of Jie Li’s games on KGS a couple of days ago. Lee Sedols Gi is pretty much the exact opposite of Jie Lis ^^
Nice pictures. The second-round game (http://eidogo.com/#titles/12scf2), which Park won, is also worth checking out. They both end up with half the board and massive amounts of dead stones.
Nexik:
Thanks, it looks like White is winning big if that variation was played. How did you get to that link? Also, I’ve started to follow your nice blog lately: congratulations for being able to comment on all major games!
Vincent:
Indeed, based on Go style it seems to me that of the two Jie Li is the pro that plays to win, and Lee Sedol is the amateur that enjoys playing Go
Justin:
Second game was a blood-bath indeed. Very spectacular!
Sorin: from weiqi.tom.com
Sorin: I was actually talking about Jie Li – the amateur
I just had a look at the second game, what a bloodbath!
Nexik: I figured it’s from weiqi.tom.com because of the file location, but I was wondering: did you happen to see it on their main page and you noted the file address at that time, or do you know how to navigate through their site and find these kind of game commentaries?
Vincent: I don’t know any other Jie Li but the US amateur, too, so we’re talking about the same person
You can find the game (commented by Yoo ChangHyuk) as the latest sample on http://www.gogameworld.com. However, it appears to be a translation of a live commentary so the analysis is not very deep.
I would also like to mention that I’m an enthusiastic reader of your blog (and website) and have been so since the start, and to thank you for the very nice read.
Thanks for your nice words Smurf, and for pointing out the game commentary: I added both your and Nexik’s links in the updated blog entry.
Sorin: I using google translator to read some go news on weiqi.tom.com :] but unfortunately the java applet on weiqi.tom.com don’t work on my PC so i only can read text and look at photos
BTW: thx for link to my blog. i appreciate it!
