Black 1, Black 3: double hane

A double hane[1] (Japanese: nidan-bane), aka two-step hane is - as the name already suggests - two hanes played in succession. It is a response to White's hane-kaeshi at W2. Usually it is quite a powerful play, if the local situation allows it.

Bill: Double hane is ambiguous. Better to say two step hane or staircase. See /Discussion page.
