Subject: Kio match game 2

In the second game of the Kio match between Habu and Kubo, Kubo again
failed to get his first win against Habu. He lost his fifth game in a
row against Habu and is now 2-0 down in this best-of-five match. Things
are looking grave for the young challenger who needs to win all of the
remaining games.

The game was a double anaguma opening and I can not remember a title
match game where this was played. The middle game looked pretty even to
me, but in the end it seemed that Habu's attack was much quicker. I did
not see any comments on the game yet, so a more detailed analysis will
have to wait until next week. The game can be viewed on:
