17 April Cho Hanseung 9p play against Park Jungsang 9p in GS Caltex League. In a game Cho Hanseung take black stones and show great way of playing natural baduk when you are playing black. In Opening Cho play mini chinese opening, so if you are not familiar with this kind of opening than black 9 and 11 can be little odd. Black 9 is special strategy to use mini chinese formation on bottom side.

This game is perfect example of fast-peaced strategy which is nowdays totally must for black because of big komi. Cho Hanseung won by resignation after173 moves and get his first point GS Caltex League

Today in GS Caltex Cup League Choi Cheolhan 9p beat Cho Hanseung by one and half point. Choi Cheolhan play Chinese fuseki. The game was very interesting because of new variation on left side:

Black 19 from Dia.1 is very strong move. In this game you can also see some interesting move in chuban like white 84. Choi Cheolhan lost title of GS Caltex Cup two years ago to Lee Sedol 9p 3-0 and this is his second chance to get back this title, but time the champion is Park Yeonghun, so Choi will have a chance to get revenge on Lee Sedol in League.

Next game of GS Caltex League will be at 3 April between Lee Sedol 9p and Kim Seongjae 1p

Cho Hanseung 9p vs Choi Cheolhan 9p B+1,5
