Though it has not been published offcicially, it appears that the Arka50 - pashpash match has been played.

I went through the games quickly.

What stands out for me os the decisive game, which Arka50 won whith white.

d4 while a solid move is by far no the most challenging opening by white. It is striking that at this level black never activated the king knight. You can argue that 1. ... d5 is OK ( still I believe that right here 1. ... Nh6 is better ), but not to play it on the second move and playing a very passive move 2. ... a6 is just not forgivable at this level.

I think the Arka50 put pressure on pashpash by drawing two black games in the first 10 games and finally switching to 1. d4 after playing all previous games 1. Nh3 made him lose concentration.

Impressive performance by Arka50.
