Fuseki Experiments
It would be nice to discuss some unusual fuseki patterns on this page. Who's come up with a wierd idea he'd like to share?
Black is experimenting. White doesn't have to answer this way of course, but it's one of the more common responses I get. The first time I had a dan player as opponent at a tournament, I played this way (I was 3 kyu at the time). After playing a weaker yose I lost by 3 1/2 points. So I haven't lost confidence in this pattern.
The 7-7 point. I've tried this one too, but don't like it. Why I even tried it? I heard the rumour of there being a German 5 dan who claims that this is his favourite first move with black. Does anyone know more about this? Can anyone come up with a reason why this might be a good move?
Please discuss and add your unusual fuseki ideas. Mark
Dieter: I know for fact that Pierre Colmez 5D played this opening against Guo Juan 7D, in the Brussels Grand Prix some years ago. After Black 7 both players were laughing, though I'm convinced that Guo didn't think at all that victory was assured yet.
