According to the Nihon Kiin homepage, Kono Rin beat Li Qincheng (B+1.5). Tomorrow (Sunday) Yuki Satoshi and Park Junghwan will play in the morning and then Iyama Yuta and Lee Sedol will play in the afternoon.

Well, the Iyama-Lee game certainly didn't disappoint.

Kono Rin won by resignation. So the final will be Lee Sedol - Kono Rin.

Wow, Japanese pros are getting surprisingly good at fast Go. I'd expect Iyama to be able to defend his title, but perhaps we all know Lee Sedol's power :blackeye: and it was a good game for both. :razz:

The Nihon Kiin homepage reports that Lee Sedol won the final by resignation in an interestingly titled article - 河野の初優勝ならず (Kono's first [international] title does not happen). :)
