Black 1, Black 3: double hane

A double hane, also known as 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.



See the /Discussion page for more examples, and a discussion about whether the double hane term itself is ambiguous or not.

See also Ryobane.
