[Computer-go] Shogi Man Vs. Machine

[Darren Cook]

Saturday saw another Man Vs. Machine game:
  http://shogi.typepad.jp/eweblog/computer_shogi/

"The computer software Bankras beat retired and former Meijin Yonenaga
Kunio in 113 moves."

It seems it is just a one-game match, and the next one won't be until
2013 (where it will be five professionals vs. five machines). I couldn't
find it mentioned explicitly but, reading between the lines, Yonenaga
sounds weaker than a young 4-dan pro.

A bit of discussion is here:
