Tapir: Has this tesuji a name? Then please add it. Otherwise you can propose one. This page intends to be a page on this tesuji in future.

kb: This is really just a version of watari.

tapir: Isn't watari just connecting underneath? Then - of course it just a version of it. But connecting with the normal monkey jump, connecting with a keima watari, connecting with shortage of liberties are all different techniques. At least for me it was quite an "Aaah" as I learned it - and I have seen several opponents in the low sdk-range quite surprised by this - when I played this as an endgame tesuji where they only expected a normal monkey jump.

Phelan: I thought I had seen it before, but searching for the shape below gave me nothing.

I got a few results in the XuanXuanQijing by removing the top right black stone.

Tapir: With the marked stone as (white or no stone) wildcard there are quite a number of results. But no basic page. Seems to be a no name tesuji though fairly common.
