Good performance by Lucas Neyrinck, who is borderline 5d~6d on European ranks. AI doesn’t show many mistakes.
For the anecdote, we had a small workshop with him just last weekend and I remember him complaining about having to get up for a game in the morning. I guess he’s not too unhappy.

Yesterday three French players played their European Championship games.
Lukas Podpera (Lukan) vs Drean-Guenaizia Benjamin (ben0) / 4.5-hour game!
Viktor Lin (Sandmann6d) vs Tanguy Le Calvé (Welvang)
Ilya Shikshin (roln90) vs Rémi Campagnie (RemiC)
All games decided by points, 0.5, 3.5 and 6.5 respectively, so close.
In Shikshin’s game OGS stonks were really high peaking at 216 viewers.
Last time we had so many maybe was Transatlantic games. Didn’t we have something like 400+ viewers there? Anyone remembers?

After defeating Gu Zihao and Shin Minjun last samurai Ichiriki Ryo lost to Xie Erhao. Game looked mostly even. Ryo was winning up to 5 points in early midgame but then Erhao reversed the advantage.
Semifinals are Ke Jie vs Yang Dingxin and Xie Erhao vs Shin Jinseo.

Top 2 games are finals and 3rd place decider of the European championship.
The third one is Tanguy le Calvé playing in the French championship.
I wonder what Tanguy would have done had he reached the semifinals. I guess European Championship is more important.
On a side note, the last round of French championship is taking place right now. After beting Dinerstein 2p last month, Lucas Neyrinck 5d beat Tanguy le Calvé 1p and Benjamin Dréan-Guénaïzia 6d, and will win the championship outside of an upset.

Nakamura Sumire lost to Okawa Takuya (after winning against Hoshikawa Koyo in previous round). I looked over the game but didn’t understand anything. The player she won is ~230th Japanese player and Okawa is ~180th.

In other news in LG Cup Park Junghwan lost to Shin Minjun.
Also in Pandanet team championship Russia vs France played (which is cool because France is the strongest European country). Russian won two, lost one, and one game is gonna be played later today.

AI ruins go once again. In Korea one of the professionals didn’t play according to their place and won a significantly stronger player. I feel it’s pretty flimsy but people already jumped on it.
Korean association should make a decision on Friday.
They say Nakamura Sumire won against Taguchi Misei in 73 moves. I wonder what happened there.

Rui Nai Wei won the kuktsu cup (not sure of the spelling?), one of the most prominent tournaments in Korea some years ago just after being invited as a pro for the Korean federation.
