A game from today brings two players, one using the Japanese client, and the other having the Chinese client.  A number of spectators on Tygem also watched the game, but what struck me as particularly unusual was the winning statistics for mystery 9d of Japan.  Having lost only 16 games on Tygem, all against 9d players, mysteryboy 9d has an overall win rate of nearly 80%, blowing many of the other Tygem stars that we've seen out of the water!  

I do not know much about the identity of this mysterious 9d from Japan, and I also don't know much about his opponent's identity.  But to be sure, mysteryboy 9d's record speaks for itself.  This player from Japan is certainly of professional caliber to be able to carry such a fantastic win rate against other Tygem 9d!

In today's game, mystery9d's choice of E4 is rather interesting to me, along with black's follow up of H4.  Both are moves that I hadn't seen before in this context.  The result seemed to have been OK for white, as xixishua 9d decided to resign after only 144 moves of game play!
