This position is also reached from Ootakamoku (4-6), Tenuki?, 4-3.

Black covers the corner to such a degree that an invasion there would generate a lot of thickness and would be hard to do which contributes to the idea behind the high moves - Influence.


Moves explained

  • a, b, c, d, e and f aim at removing the possibility of a moyo on the right.
  • g might be considered a probe(?)
  • j is meant to use the get-under threat left by the high BC stone.
