Hazama tobi
    Keywords: Go term

The shape created by the marked stone in conjunction with White 1 is called hazama tobi in japanese.

It can be powerful, but you should have an answer ready if your opponent plays in the middle (the marked point).

Diag.: Hazama tobi


For instance, in the example above, white has a good answer at 2 in Dia 1 if black tries to play in the middle so, black 1 is not a very good move.
