Oki Wants Ikken Tobi
   

The name of this shape is a pun on Obi-Wan Kenobi. At the same time it indicates that, when a certain placement (oki) threatens, the following one space jump (ikken tobi) is called for. I discovered this line of play, after having it seen in KanazawaProblem18, KanazawaProblem34 and KanazawaProblem36. It is an example of How to learn from examples ? - a thread on rec.games.go started by Robert Jasiek. # : - 7

White threatens the placement at A. The placement will then eihter connect to the marked white stone, or connect underneath to the unmarked.

Black 1 makes good shape, and deals with the placement.

Diag.:

White can't connect at 5, because she is in damezumari.
