Turn The Tide - Banzuke Kyushu 2013

[Jakusotsu 5,755]

The KK border had to be lowered even lower in Juryo and Makushita this time. 6-9 is considered KK there for banzuke purposes, and even then it was quite a stretch.

As of day 14, Qijuryu lead over stumbling Andoreasu by one single tie-breaker point. On senshuraku, both lost but Andoreasu's successful Gagamaru earned him one point while Qijuryu gave up three with Kakuryu, putting the long-time leader in the driver's seat again - exciting finish!

Yusho:

M15w Andoreasu (11-4) (Yusho winner...)

Kanto-sho:

J2e Mischashimaru (32) - repeat performance!

Gino-sho:

M15w Andoreasu (13-13)

M4e Frinkanohana (13-13)

Shukun-sho:

J2e Mischashimaru (7.130)

Congrats to the winner!

Thank you for playing, see ya in January.

It could have been even more exciting. It was a 50/50 decision for me between Azumaryu and Homasho. If only I had chosen Azumaryu, the Yusho would be mine. Sad.
