SUZUKI closed the Bishop line and started making Yagura gakoi . HAYAMIZU pushed the 6th file Pawn with 4...P-6d , moved up the right Silver with 5...S-6c and she seemed to be making Migi Shiken Bisha form .

However HAYAMIZU slid her Rook with 7...R-7b and exchanged the 7th file Pawns . SUZUKI pushed the 2nd file Pawn with 16.P-2d to exchange the Bishops and Pawns . HAYAMIZU moved up her Bihsop with 17...B-4d to avoid a Bishop exchage .

While SUZUKI was making Yagura gakoi , HAYAMIZU also developed her camp and swung the Rook with 24...R-2a to attack SUZUKI's Rook .
