Shibano Toramaru must be a nice guy

Post by CDavis7M »

He seems to have many friends and fans. Happy 22nd Birthday to him. He also wrote that his goal this year (as others) is Life. :cool:

By the way, Shibano won the 2nd game of the 5 game Oza title match against challenger Iyama, who also has 1 win. Shibano ordered udon with tempura. Iyama ordered seafood and veggies on pilaf. At least, this is what the sponsor is saying. They might have packed their lunch from home for all I know.

Shibano just won against Iyama yesterday in the 4th game of the 69th Oza title match. Now they each have 2 wins and the 5th game will decide. It's scheduled for December 9.

I'm becoming more of an Iyama fan but I hope that Shibano defends his title because Go is more fun with more title holders.
