SATO selected Niteme San-Ni Hi senpou as the opening of this game . AKUTSU replied 2.P-9f line . In stead of 2.P-9f , 2.P-2f seems to give Sente an advantage , but this line is not so easy .
(see my other blog ; http://shogi-opening-traps.blogspot.com/search/label/Niteme%20San-Ni%20Hi%20senpou )

Against Sente's 2.P-9f , 2...P-9d seemes to more natural than K-6b . But the move 2...P-9d has a dangerous line . This line is also shown in my blog shown above link .

Then SATO didn't push 9th file Pawn and started making Kakoi .
