Lee Chang-ho and Shin Min-joon face off in a 3-on-3 ‘wild card’
The ‘Yangshin Final’ is ripe. In the first match of the 6th round of the 2023 YK Gungi Cup finals held at the Baduk TV studio on the afternoon of the 3rd, Shin Min-jun 9p defeated Lee Chang-ho 9p. The points raised in the process of a gang fight that occurred at an early point led to a complete victory graph.
3 hours and 10 minutes, number 307 end. This season, it was the longest time and the longest among Lee Chang-ho’s 9th-dan players. “I think I won 1 win, but it seems like I lost later, but I wanted to try a count, but I think it didn’t work because I lost again,” said Lee Chang-ho, 9th dan of the national team.메이저놀이터
The opponent’s record was 4 wins and 3 losses based on Shin Min-jun’s 9th Dan. It was a confrontation after an uncontested defeat in 128 moves in the final round of Sawfalcosanol’s top knight finals the year before last. The two knights have one thing in common: they joined the final league as wild cards.
Shin Min-joon 9-dan rose to 5 wins and 1 loss in the league. He is the motive of joining and forms the top rank with Shin Jin-seo, 9th Dan, who has 5 wins, called ‘Yangshin’. In the future, Shin Min-joon, 9th dan, has one game against Kim Seung-gu, 9th dan, and Shin Jin-seo, 9th dan, has two games left against Kang Dong-yoon and Lee Chang-ho, 9th dan.
Even if both Shin Jin-seo, 9th Dan and Shin Min-jun, 9th Dan, are defeated in the remaining matches, they are at least in an advantageous position, guaranteeing a equal match again. Park Jeong-hwan, 9-dan (3 wins, 2 losses) and Won Seong-jin, 9-dan (3 wins, 2 losses), who are currently defending their ‘2 losses’, have a chance.
YK Gungi Bae made a change to the rules this year. In case of a tie, last season, the order was determined in the order of winner-to-win → rematch, but this season, if there is a tie in the finalist selection, it is determined as a rematch, not a winner-to-win. Therefore, Shin Jin-seo, 9P with 5 wins, or Shin Min-Jun, 9P with 5 wins and 1 loss, advance to the final has not yet been confirmed.
The 2023 YK Gungi Cup is competing for the championship in the 1st and 2nd preliminaries, the final league, and the 5th final stage. The prize money is 60 million won for the winner and 30 million won for the runner-up. On the 16th, Shin Jin-seo and Kang Dong-yoon’s 6th round 2 matches will continue.
