Cho U Defends Gosei Title

Cho U won the third game as well against challenger Yuki Satoshi and defended his Gosei title with straight wins, 3:0.
Gosei Title 2009, game 3
Yuki, playing white, started with an unusual opening again (his 4th move was on the 4X6 point!) but lost in the end by 1.5 points.

The game record is here.

Cho holds 5 of the 7 major Japanese title. I wonder if he will become Kisei challenger – he started the league well, 2:0, but it is way too early to know for now.
