Gan Shiyang 3p, master of unorthodox openings: chuyangch 9d vs. FHCQ 9d
Gan Siyang 3p: Many Westerners probably have at least heard of this name recently, because he is famous for his unusual openings, it is his trademark! You can find a few of his games on go4go.net/v2 and be amazed not only by his openings, but how he also manages to win with them too. When he isn't busy with League games, you can see him playing on Tygem actively as chuyangch, 9d. And don't worry, he still uses his weird openings there as well :).
This is his game against FHCQ, another fellow Chinese 9d that I don't know much about unfortunately. However, what's worth noting is that Gan plays a very influential game with 2 6-4 moves. While not the most bizarre moves he has set up for the opening, I think one thing that cannot be denied is his excellent handling of his moves. I also like the corner sequences, not everyday you see those. Note: Today I feel good so I post up 2 instead of 1, enjoy! :). Also, in case people wonder, all games I post are "fresh", or less than a few weeks old at the time of writing unless I state so explicitly, so you are always getting the *hottest* games :). If I watch it live, I will also post up betting statistics.
