Final 2: 5 hours, 10 minutes, 226 shots, and a stunning upset
Swept Shaker, 2-0 overall Korea wins sixth career title

Shin Shin-seo, 9th dan, wins the 'Go Olympics' Ng Si-bae championship.

South Korean Go's "absolute number one" Shin Shin-seo, 23, has finally reached the top of the game.

Shin Shin-seo, 23, defeated Chinese powerhouse Shaker, 9, in 226 moves in the second game of the third round of the 9th Ng Sibae World Go Championship at the Sunkou Villa in Changning District, Shanghai, China, on Wednesday.

Shin Shin-seo, who had won the first game two days earlier, improved his overall record to 2-0 and claimed the long-awaited title.

South Korea regained its dominance in the tournament after 14 years, when Choi Cheol-han won the sixth edition in 2009.

After four consecutive victories by Cho Hun-hyun, Seo Bong-soo, Yoo Chang-hyuk, and Lee Chang-ho in Games 1-4, Korea continued its winning streak with Choi Chul-han in Game 6 and Shin Shin-seo in Game 9.

Shin Shin-seo, who took the white on the day, built up a large force on the left and upper flanks as Shaker took an early advantage.

When Shaker appeared to be in a hurry for a mate, leaving his center unprotected, Shin went on the offensive.

He attacked the black hemp, picked up a house on the top flank, and destroyed the right flank black pieces.

Confident of his advantage, Shin played it too safe and allowed his opponent to catch up.

However, when the disadvantaged Shaker hurriedly switched to a left-handed endgame, Shin won the keystone central black point and attacked the black hemp, cutting off its tail and capturing it to reopen the gap.

The defeated Shaker twitched here and there, trying to shake up the board, but eventually threw a stone as Shin Shin-seo calmly took it without making the slightest mistake.

This was the point where the AI probability graph predicted a 99% chance of Shin's victory.

"I didn't think I was nervous at first, but I think I didn't sleep well," Shin said after securing the win. "The pressure was quite high, but I thought, 'Let's not repeat our mistakes because we've gained experience,'" he added.

"I thought it was very good in the middle, but then I loosened it up and it became fine," he said, adding, "When Shaker took his hand out in the center, I was forced to chase (his opponent's) hemp, and that's when I thought I won."

After more than five hours and 10 minutes of hard-fought play, Shin took home a prize of $400,000 (approximately $530 million), the world's largest prize in a go tournament.

Shaker, the runner-up, received $100,000 (about $130 million).

Shin, who until last month had won $710 million in prize money this year, has now earned $1.24 billion, surpassing the $1 billion mark for the fourth consecutive year.

He is also expected to surpass his previous record annual prize of 1.4495 billion won, which he set last year.

In addition, Shin Shin-seo won his 33rd title in 11 years since joining the organization in July 2012, placing him at No. 5 on the all-time title list.

This is his fifth major world title after winning two with LG and one each with Samsung and Chunran.

Shin also took a 2-1 lead in the all-time series against Shaker.

Due to the pandemic of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), the tournament was played online from September 2020 to January 2021, with the round of 28 to the quarterfinals.

After waiting more than two years and seven months after the quarterfinals, the final match was held face-to-face to determine the winner.
