He’s currently on a 19-game winning streak against pros with an average elo of 3473. He’s insane.

Kim Jiseok vs Murakawa Daisuke

Mountain Cup update. Holy cow, Yamashita Keigo won against Park Junghwan. That’s so unexpected. Too bad this game wasn’t broadcasted anywhere (weird) and I can’t see what happened there. Now Yamashita is the only Japanese left, Iyama and Murakawa both lost.
Look at Keigo, he looks like he’s sleeping during the games, so cute.

he rose slightly after this day to 3703.x but has since fallen below 3700 again 
hope he can continue his rise! It’s hard to climb when you’re on top

Pair go. Japanese youngsters vs Chinese youngsters. Japan is black, Nakamura Sumire and Fukuoka Kotaro. I don’t know Chinese ones. But white won by 4.5.

Looks like no more Redmond relays for now.
Antti played Hirose Yuichi 3p 26th August, that is today. It wasn’t broadcasted nor do I know where to look for the result.
Redmond is going to play Li Yi Hsiu 8p on 29th in Oza preliminaries B. But it’s not going to be broadcasted also, Japanese got bored of Redmond winning everything. Look, he won three opponents straight while his next opponent got seeded right on top.

Redmond wins against Li Yi Hsiu 8p and passes into next preliminary stage, which is preliminaries A for 68th Oza title. Li Yi Hsiu is 37th Japanese players according to mamumamu list.
I don’t know who he’s going to play this week yet and there will be no broadcast. But!
On September 9th Redmond is going to play in 2nd SGW cup.
And at least first game will be broadcasted:
Let’s look at the opponents.
First he needs to win Tsukuda Akiko 5p, which shouldn’t be that hard. After that, if he does win, he’s going to play the winner of the pair Nishimura Keiji 8p and Ogata Masaki 9p. It’s a fair match, Ogata is pretty strong though. And whoever wins this plays against the winner among Oba Junya 7p, Nagashima Kozue 2p (hey, that’s the host of NHK games) and Yamamoto Kentaro 5p. Looks like Oba is going to be a tough opponent.
The thing I worry about is that this tournament is blitz, very blitz. 20 seconds per move. That can be a problem for an older player, can’t it?
Last time Redmond won two games in this tournament but lost to Chang Li Yu 8p.
