White 4 is an enclosure

  Difficulty: Advanced   Keywords: Opening

A rare idea for opening the game is for White to play W2 and W4 as a corner enclosure, thus allowing Black three corners. It was tried as an experiment by Kubomatsu, and probably on a few other occasions by strong players.

Gu Li made a 3563 enclosure with W2 and W4 in a game 2001-09-14.
