I think it would be nice for Lee Chang Ho to show his glory days aren't over with his first international title since 2007 (see http://homepage.ntlworld.com/andrew.j.s ... Table.html). Not that I have anything against Jiang and it sure would be sweet for him to get his first international title, but then I need to find a new colour for my table!

Jiang Weiji won the first game by resign.

Game was very tight toward to end of middle and Jiang went after upper middle group to take advantage. The group wasn't in danger but somehow Lee played strange move which killed his group.

Mmm, seems like Lee's slump (well, comparatively, I suspect 8 runner-ups at international tournaments in 6 years would not be considered a slump for most :p) may be continuing...

The group was also never fully alive. Jiang had no choice but to go for the kill (otherwise he did not have enough).

There's nothing rewarding about watching Lee Changho fall short again but I've been following Jiang Weijie since he defeated Gu Li for the Mingren two years ago and I've gotten a lot from his games. Definitely one of my favorite players and I'm happy to see him take his first international title.
