Shape Problem 4
Keywords: Shape, Problem
In the game MigeruVsAlexWeldon we encounter the following position in the left top corner
Black played the one-point jump
But what is the root of the problem?
Black's intention to separate the white groups is good. But what is the shape? Which move does it efficiently?
I have realized this right now, looking through the game. I often play "standard" moves such as the one-point jump without thinking. And quite often I have a feeling that this is not the best way to play. So, I decided to post this as a problem. The solution was not obvious to me at the first glance (though I knew what Ishida recommended in a slightly different position).
