The following three games are available to watch and play through on a webcasting shogi board. They are the three games of the final round of 53rd Oui-sen. They started at 10:00am(JST) and the allotted thinking time per player is four hours, so I think the game will end around 7:00pm(JST).
- Funae Kouhei(5 dan) vs Watanabe Akira(Ryuo & Ouza)
- Hirose Akihiro(7 dan) vs Tobe Makoto(6 dan)
- Makino Mitsunori(4 dan) vs Fujii Takeshi(9 dan)
Ousho-sen challenger will be decided by a play-off of the winners of Red and White round robin leagues which consts of five players each. All the six players who are competing the games linked above have the possibility to go the play-off. Watanabe is 3-1 and Funae, Hirose and Tobe are 2-2 in Red while Fujii and Makino is 3-1 in White before today's round.
