Black 1 is a very classical move. Naturally it is more slow-paced than the closer pincers.
White's traditional replies are at a for immediate life, or at b, taking up position while waiting to see what Black has in mind.
With 1 and 3 White has enough room to live. Black next plays at a to keep White shut in, or b.
White can also come out with 3. That leaves behind a shape point at a that Black can play later. It also allows Black a more efficient shape than in the next variation.
Comparing with this order of play, White 1 here first seems more consistent. Path: PincerPath · Prev: 35PointLowApproachTwoSpaceHighPincer · Next: 35PointLowApproachThreeSpaceHighPincer This is a copy of the living page "35 Point Low Approach Three Space Low Pincer" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
