It's funny how Xie Erhao has spelt doom for Iyama yet again...

Now I think about it, it could become a rivalry!

Xie Erhao has beaten Ke Jie (group stage in round of 32), Park Junghwan, and Iyama Yuta in this tournament. And now he drew Ke Jie again for a best of 3. He will certainly have earned this title if he goes all the way.

Tang Weixing simply enjoys Samsung Cup too much comparing to his performance else where. Since 2013, he has won once, placed 2nd twice, and reached semifinal two other times (including this yer).

A game from when Xie Erhao was 13 years old.

Well done Ahn Kukhyun, keeping Korean hopes alive! I thought his game with Tang was amusing in that he gave Tang a taste of his own medicine, having a lot of weak groups which Tang couldn't quite kill or profit enough from attacking.

Elf says Xie (black) was leading for over 100 moves (except d3 attach being a mistake Ke should have punished with inside hane to retake corner). going up to 83% at move 82, but then the game changed hands with moves 111 and 113 (-35%) which slacked off in allowing white to settle on the top side but let the pressure of the white middle group (it agrees with Ke that sacrificing the right side 5 stones was an ok trade). (Black resigned at 194, the rest is my exploring why white is alive).

Is there somewhere I can watch the final live (bonus points for commentary and webcam coverage)?

I'm sure the final will be broadcast on all the big Asian servers. Fox has commentary in Chinese with FineArt winrate and suggested variations (all you need to know is Chinese character for white is empty box and black is denser sqiuggles). WBaduk has Korean commentary and variation diagrams. Yike (a new server) has been doing some English text commentary, wouldn't surprise me if they will for the final. They post board links on r/baduk.

:lol: Not a bad description

White =
Black =

By the way, in Japanese it's the same character for white and a very close one for black :

Impressive stuff from Ahn: he's not even in the top 10 Koreans on goratings (#43) but he's brought his A game when it counts, beating Yang Dingxin (#14) by half a point in the 1st round, then wins by resign vs Lian Xiao (#5), then 2 more against Tang Weixing (#21) who tends to do well against Koreans, and now against Ke Jie (#4).

Here's the game, the opening started with Ke Jie playing territorrially with a 3-3 and lots of AI-inspired josekis common these days. Ahn's press at p14 was the first move not in my vocabulary and started the first (fairly gentle) fighting of the game. Things got more exciting with a ko later and it appears Ke made a duff threat.
