Suberi
Keywords: Shape, Tactics, Go term
A suberi is a slide, usually under the opponent's position. Black 1 in the diagram is an example of suberi (in a joseki that is known as "catenaccio").

The easiest kind of slide to understand and handle is the knight's move slide, from the marked stone to the point a. The longer slides to b, c, d are useful techniques (examples of haengma), but involve weaknesses. You might say that the slide to d is so tenuous as not to be any kind of connection.
In professional games it is often the case that after a longer slide the shape becomes fixed quite soon.

This is an example from current play of a slide used to handle a position on the side, which was in danger of becoming cramped.

White's aim with the slide is to avoid this sequence, in which the marked stone is too close to the white two-stone wall.
