Tanigawa made himself very relax in the Meijin 4th game due to this success. This is the behind aspect of emotional field. The 5th game, I imagine, Tanigawa, black, will take Bishop-Exchange again, which is his most favorite and strongest strategy. > > A professional shogi player, Toyokawa 5 Dan, is in Europe now. Toyokawa's comments on the TV Shogi is quite understandable for the beginners as a lecturer. This is his reputation among us. He would be a much stronger player if he would stop drinking !! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Dick Iwakura, a member of Java Shogi Committee Mail: dick patt gr jp Mailing List : shogi ml sakura ne jp http://www2.patt.gr.jp/~patt/sibu/sibu.html ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
