Shogi Game 22 (professional, no comment). The next game is submitted by Reijer Grimbergen. It is a game from the 8-th final of the 54-th Kisei match, played 16-th October 1989. Time limits are 4 hours each. Habu with black used 3h57; Yonenaga as white 3h59. Reijer says about it (more or less freely translated by me): "Yesterday, I happened to go over this game, published in Shogi Sekai. In my opinion it is one of the nicest professional games played in the past couple of months." Reijer Grimbergen Submitted 17-th July 1990. Pieter Stouten Archived 18-th July 1990.
