Occupy the Two-Two Point

corner  

The 2-2 Point is circled. It is a unique spot on the board, different from other second line points.

OccupyTheTwoTwoPoint to:

• Make eyes, make shape
  • The 2-2 Point is often on the line of symmetry?
• Gain a liberty
  • Often your opponent can't push at 1-1 or at 1-2

corner

I thought I could just respond with a, but with white b, I am unable to push from either side.
