Subject: Game 20 in the archive. Very strong Japanese amateur comes to

Game 20 has been added to the SHOGI-L archive. It is the first contribution
of Reijer Grimbergen <edh <at> kunrc1 <dot> urc <dot> kun <dot> nl>. Reijer is one of Europe's top
players and won already several major European tournaments.
On 25 juni 1990 at the house of RICOH Europe in the Netherlands a game
was played between Reijer and Tanigawa Toshiaki. Maybe the last name
rings a bell. But if it does, you are only partly right. Tanigawa Toshiaki
is the brother of the professional player and former Meijin Tanigawa Koji.
The ability to play Shogi runs in the family, however, because the amateur
Tanigawa has the highest amateur grade (6-dan) that can be obtained.
You might wonder what Tanigawa Toshiaki does in Holland. Well, he works for
RICOH and recently started working at their European department. His
presence can do Dutch Shogi a lot of good and I hope it will prove to be a
stimulus for the whole of European Shogi.
As usual the game can be retrieved by sending a mail/interactive message/file
to LISTSERV@TECHNION containing the line:
