Chinese Fuseki
Difficulty: Advanced
Keywords: Opening
The Chinese Fuseki is the Fuseki pattern that is characterized by the black moves 1-3-5 (or 1-3-A) in this diagram. Black is not enclosing the bottom right corner but playing on a slightly larger scale. The idea behind the opening is that white at some time will be forced to invade somewhere in the moyo that black builds on the right, after which black will use the attack on white group to turn another part of it into territory. There are two main variants, namely the low Chinese fuseki which is presented here, and the high Chinese fuseki where black 5 is played at A. The high variant is more influence-oriented, the low variant more territory-oriented. See also: This is a copy of the living page "Chinese Fuseki" at Sensei's Library.
