Maruseru/ Low Chinese Opening Double Attack

: This is one of the normal ways to attack the low chinese opening.

: Black doesn't extend from his stones on the right side and plays a big point instead.

: If Black neglects to reinforce his stones, White can attack at the vital point.

: This is a normal response.

: White could take the time to reinforce his stones.

: Black can't really afford to play off once more, but let's say he does so we can see the continuation White has on the right side.

: If White now gets to play the vital point, he will have an easier time.

: Now White doesn't need to react to this move.

: White gets an ideal extension.

: Black makes an invasion similar to White's invasion of the low chinese formation.

: This is severe.

: Now White can make profit.

: Black should not block from this side.

: This is another idea.

: This is the correct move to get out.

: White makes profit while attacking.

3: A black move here would be uncomfortable for White.

4: Black can pincer.
