Jump attachment

Jump attachment

This is, for example, the attachment in the attach-block shape.

Attach-extend

This is one version (the more common type) of attach-extend shape. The other one starts with BC at a.



Sabaki techniques

[Diagram]
Jump attachment, hane

Charles This is a quite fundamental sabaki technique. Assuming White is obstructed from extending in the direction of the circled points, and doesn't want to jump out immediately at a, W1 then W3 can be considered.



This offers Black the chance to capture W3. White can give up that stone, or WC, in the sequel: but mustn't sacrifice W1, which is pivotal.

[Diagram]
Jump attachment, cross-cut

The choice of W3 is also available: but leads to wilder variations. Once more White must save W1.
