From: bogin YAHOO CO JP> Date: 18 apr 2003 Subject: () Well, Game 1 of the Meijin Match finished about 10 minutes ago. Moriuchi Meijin resigned on move 92. So, Habu RyuO has jumped out in front. This was kind of an important game for Habu RyuO. Even though he has a winning record against Moriuchi Meijin, he had lost the last 6 games they played. If Game 1 is any indication than this looks likes it going to be an exciting match. Moriuchi Mejin gambled everything he had on a very sharp attack but somehow Habu RyuO's king was able to escape to the other side of the board. In the end Moriuchi Meijin could have tried to play on since there was no immediate mate threatened. But, he had no pieces to attack Habu RyuO's king and probably almost no time to left on his clock and thus no real chance to win.
