It’s interesting how Shogi games can be played until late at night and the game is still even.
For the below game, the time now is 12am local time, and the game is still 50-50 which means that it has just started. No wonder they call it the longest night.
I also heard that they aren’t allowed to go to the toilet once they enter byo-yomi, so it will be a fight with their bladders as well.
They are the same. Someone will read out the time remaining when they are in byoyomi. I’m not sure how far the toilet is, but it’s probably difficult to go and come back within a minute if you are in the last byo yomi.
