Today is the day when a 5th Mynavi Joshi Open game is held between Shoreikai 1kyu Kato Momoko and Joryu Shodan Shimai Saori. The game started at 10:00am(JST) at JSA building in Sendagaya, Tokyo. As a result of Furigoma, Kato became Sente. The opening Shimai chose was Shikenbisha blocking the Bishop's diagonal which becomes rare these days. Kato exchanged the pawns on the 3rd file with he Bishop in an early stage before completing her castle. The allotted thinking time per player is three hours so it will end after 4:00pm, I think. You can watch and replay the game through the official live-board at
