Hane Naoki won game 6 in Honinbo Title and the score is even: 3-3.
Since he was led 3-0, this is one of those rare, miracle come-backs in 7 games titles. I remember reading in a Go World review that more often than not the one that comes from behind has better chances statistically to win the 7th game and the title.
Takao Shinji, the current Honinbo title owner, seems disappointed in the photo below:
Here is the game record. Hane looked very inspired in this game: the attachment at 57, and the following sequence (including the sacrifice at 67) show that he deserved to win.
The 7th and last game will be played in just a couple of days, on July 22nd and 23rd.
