Who will be the next professional in Europe?


I have 2 guesses: Ilya Shikshin (roln111 on KGS) or Artem Kachanovsky (artem92).
Ilya is a bit (0.5 stone?) stronger and he stays in Korea, so he has more chances.
But, I think that Artem works harder than Ilya on improving. He improved so much during
the last few years!
Artem kindly emailed me the games he played few days ago in Go tournament in
Pardubice. He scored 5-1 and beat very famous players:
Oh Chimin, Pal Balogh, Ondrej Silt, Radek Nechanicky and Jan Simara.
Not bad :)
He only lost to Hwang Inseong, former Korean 1st class insei.

I decided to comment some Artem's games for Go4Go members.
Here you can see uncommented version of Artem's victory against Oh Chimin,
who plays on pro level, for sure. It was the biggest sensation of this
tournament!
