Iyama Yuta pulls out a win, making it 3-2!

edit: there's an error in the sgf from igo kisen, at move 64. Does anyone have the correct version?

Very likely it's just one missing white stone. That would explain the 147-148 exchange too, which is pretty silly otherwise.

This might help. The game has the moves shown there.

Actually the move isn't on that image, but it's pretty clear it was the capture at R17, which fixes the endgame sequence jts mentioned.

Iyama's win was a surprise to many as he had not won a game with white in a title match in Japan all year. Until last week all his wins in the Kisei, Judan, and Meiji matches were with black. He also held black in winning the Agon and Ryusei finals. The only exception had been his win against Gu Li in the Bosai!
