10.S-4f G5b-4c






KIMURA selected "Ittezon Kakukawari" as the opening of this game . MARUYAMA pushed P-2e before G-7h . Perhaps he thought the similer line seen in MIURA and KIMURA's game .

But KIMURA didn't slect this line , he made "Yagura gakoi" formation before pushing his Rook Pawn . In other words , KIMURA choiced deffensive strategy instead of counter attacking one in the early stage of the game .
