Guess Kisenosato's Aite

Recommended Posts

Day 12-15 the Yokozuna has to fight the 4 Ozekis so that only leaves him Day 10 or 11 for the 2 Sekiwake's and since Kotoshogiku has got the 7-1 record I think they will give him the first shot on Day 10 therefore I will beat this dead horse one more time and go with

Day 10: Baruto

Day 10 - Baruto

I guess my appraisal of the upcoming European Yokozuna was a bit too much for the torikumi makers y'day, but now it's time for Dark Blue, Black & White ! Three Lions on the Mawashi - never stop believing

Day 10 brought another episode of the big bandwagon for the big Estonian. Again the torikumi makers toyed with us and went with O1E Kaio. Jejima was the only one to correctly concur and thereby will jump into a gino-sho tie with Kofuji who forgot to enter his pick of Baruto last night. By Kofuji's analysis it was a coin toss between for Baruto and Kaio. Asashosakari retains his lead and is invited to make an early pick. Kofuji will likely make an early pick so he doesn't forget again.

[Edit: There were also 3 votes for the Yokozuna, so not a wide range of selections for Day 10.]

Yaochoyama (Y1E 5-5)   Y1
				   O1 Profomisakari (O1W 5-5)
Jakusotsu (S1E 5-5)	S1 Gernobono (S1W 4-6)
Kotoviki (S2E 3-7)	 S2 Hidariashiyama (S2W 1-9)
Asashosakari (S3E 7-3) S3
Oshirokita (K1E 3-7)   K1 XiaoTan (K1W 2-8)

Kuroimori (M1E 4-6)	M1 Chisaiyama (M1W 2-8)
Jejima (M2E 4-6)	   M2 Holleshoryu (M2W 4-6)
Maguroyama (M3E 2-8)   M3 Andonishiki (M3W 4-6)
Kofuji (M4E 6-3-1)	 M4 Kameumi (M4W 1-5-4)
Shimodahito (M5E 2-8)  M5

Mae-zumo
Anjoboshi (mz 5-5)

Kisenosato's aites: 1. M2W Yoshikaze, 2. M3E Aran 3. K1E Tochiozan 4. K1W Kakuryu 5. M1E Aminishiki 6. S1W Kotoshogiku 7. M1E Toyonoshima 8. O2E Kotooshu 9. M2E Tochnoshin 10. O1E Kaio

Kameumi's defaults:

Day 11 - Hakuho

Day 12 - Baruto

Day 13 - Harumafuji

Day 14 - Kotooshu

Day 15 - Wakanosato

FWIW, my analysis spit out odds of about 2/3 for Bart and the rest on Kaio and Hakuho, with the yokozuna slightly favoured. Kudos to Jejima! The real stunner though is that there's no ozeki matchup on Day 10, which just invalidated every single scenario I've drawn up for the remaining days...

I will go with Hakuho as well since there is no other day for Kisenosato to fight him!!!

Day 11 - Hakuho, obviously

I'm more puzzled by Harumafuji's schedule than Kise's. In my mind, they only had days 9-11 to pair him with the other three ozeki, as they all face each other and the yokozuna on days 13-15. Day 12 it's of course Hakuho for Haruma. But now they match him with Goeido on day 10...? So where does that leave room for either Harumafuji-Kaio or Harumafuji-Kotooshu? I'm sure I'm missing something vital here, but what?

You're right. Unless they're gonna change the usual schedule for Hakuho, Harumafuji will have to skip either Kaio or Kotooshu.

Hmm, perhaps Hakuho will have Day 11 - Harumafuji and Day 12 - Kisenosato? Anybody brave enough to bet on it?

I've burned some more brain cells over this problem, and I can't find any solution. Unless Maguroyama and me are really missing something vital here, it looks like there will be one Ozeki-matchup skipped this time. Have they really painted themselves into a corner? (Whatever above, it is funny...)

Ok, I tortured my poor brain a little bit more, and it thinks it can be done! Now I'm going to make a complete fool of myself and change my pick to

Day 11 - Baruto

(cheers to Maguroyama for pointing it out)
