Cho Hanseung – GS Caltex Champion
9 December, Cho Hanseung and Park Yeonghun played in 4th game of 14 GS Caltex Cup final. In the game Park Yeonghun took black stones but lost the game after only 138 moves.

Up to black 35 opening was pretty common. After invasion white gets nice wall but black reduce it very nicely.

After black 77 games was even or maybe to small black advantage, so if we add Park Yeonghun skillful yose, Park Yeonghun was in very good position. Unfortunately in middle game he play slow move. Few move later Park Yeonghun must feel presure, because he play weird move. Situation get worse when he ignore white 108 and play his miscalculation in bottom side. After 138 moves Park Yeonghun resigned.
New Champion
Cho Hanseung won the champion with the score 3-1 and become 14th GS Caltex. Unfortunately he won’t be able to defend this title next year, because from 15 December he start serve in the army. It’s pity to Korean pro scene than in 2010 there will be fewer strong players. First Lee Sedol retired, now Cho Hanseung going to army.

I would like to see 27 played at J5. I cant claim it is better but it would be difficult for white to extend at the lower side.
