Cho U, playing black, won by resignation in the second game of the Meijin Title, so the score is now 1-1.
There were two very interesting exchanges in the two corners on the lower side in the first 70 moves.
Meijin Title started yesterday: title holder Takao Shinji won the first game by 4.5 points against the challenger and previous Meijin title holder, Cho U.
Takao built a huge moyo starting from the lower side, and that turned in the end into a huge territory.
It was interesting to see Takemiya giving the public game commentary - he must have been very happy with Black’s strategy, since he’s the one who’s name is associated with large moyo strategies.
Next game: September 19, 20.
