3443 enclosure
Keywords: Opening
There were further experiments in the 1990s by Yang Hui, Qiu Jun and Cho Hun-hyeon. There are examples in pro play of the corner being enclosed in the 3443 pattern during the middle game, to leave the minimum aji. For example Sakata did this in a game 1979-04-18 against Ushinohama Satsuo[1]. This enclosure should perhaps be seen in those terms - a very tight way to take territory - despite tries to use it as an opening play. [1] This relates on conceptual level with comments at classification of positions on the late middle game. This is a copy of the living page "3443 enclosure" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
