Hane Comes Back In Honinbo: 2-3
Hane Naoki recovered after losing the first 3 games in his challenge for the Japanese Honinbo title currently owned by Takao Shinji: he won games 4 and 5, closing the gap to just one game difference.
Photo and game record from 4th game:
Game 5 was particularly spectacular, ending in a huge semeai spawning over most of the board.
Next game will be played on July 16th and 17th. Takao is still one win away from keeping his title, while Hane needs two wins to capture it.
