The first round of the 31st LG Cup took place today. Here are the results (taken from Tygem):
Choi Jaeyong - Li Weiqing B+R
Mok Jinsuk - Fukuoka Kotaro B+R
Na Hyun - Gu Zihao B+R
Yang Kaiwen - Han Seungju W+2.5
Park Younghoon - Iyama Yuta B+R
Wang Xinghao - Kim Junghyun W+R
Kim Eunji - Park Hamin B+R
Li Xuanhao - Kim Myounghoon W+R.
Japanese players are 2-0 but only one Korean player gets to the next round (thanks to the lone Korean-Korean game). Since some pretty big names are conspicuously absent, I guess some players are seeded for the next round tomorrow.
It's been some time since I replayed a lot of modern pro games but looking at Iyama and Fukuoka's game, I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that the fuseki seemed more varied than in games from a couple of years ago. Too small a sample to say, of course.
Nice sequence starting from 61 in Iyama's game.
