What do you think, does Hirata have any chance of winning the tournament? That would be really great, but I doubt it, because of his bad SOS...


I do not think he can make up the SOS difference to China or Korea at this point, so the only way it can happen is if China's Bai Baoxiang loses to Eric Lui the next round, and Taiwan beats Korea as well. And even then it is unlikely. :)

According to the broadcast on World Baduk, Eric Lui just crushed the Taiwanese challenger. He should get 3rd place in the WAGC. He's had to face France, China, Korea, and Taiwan and by no means had a easy way through the WAGC. Congrats to Eric and USA for highest finish the USA ever got!!! To the streets my fellow Americans!

Final results: http://www.nihonkiin.or.jp/amakisen/wor ... esult.html

Congrats to China, Korea and USA :tmbup:

Also the result of the Polish 4d player is remarkable (13th place). He is the one using that special :scratch: strategy against stronger players :tmbup:

Thank you Japan for another great event :clap:

Thanks for the link.

So far, I've seen only one game of the polish representative on the official site. Are there others somewhere ?

Ireland finished ahead of the UK with 4 wins from 8, a cause for celebration :)

Nice event, and congratulations to all!

Although the 1-2 finalists seem to be in a class of their own from the results, the disambiguation between 4-11 or so isn't so clear. (SOS, SOSOS, etc. are often luck of the draw things.) There are some cycles:

Burzo > Debarre

but

Burzo < Kuin < Rattanasetyut < Debarre

And of course the Japanese rep, Hirata, suffered an upset against Ofstad early on.
