Two very impressive games!
Especially the second one... to invite the white rook's promotion in the early middlegame seems very brave! Or is this still Joseki? Replaying the game I was wondering what would have happened if White had promoted at 87 instead of 88. Probably something obvious that I was missing there :)
Do you know whether other kifus of Satomi Kana are available online?
Thank you, and keep up the good work!
