		<description><![CDATA[This game is the first round of the 57th Japanese OZA title. Cho U 9p, who just lost his Meijin and Agon titles, successfully defeated Yamada Kimio 9p with only 106 moves. The game started slow but Yamada 9p&#8217;s misreading led to black&#8217;s sudden collapse.
Next game comment will be at the end of this month.

One worth noting game is the first match of the Japanese OZA. The title holder Cho U 9p defeated Yamada Kimio 9p with only 106 moves. The interesting thing is that the game ended [...]]]></description>

Three Chinese players (Gu Li, Qiu Jun, Kong Jie) and one Korean player (Lee ChangHo) advanced to the semi-final.
