Split-Fuseki
%TOC%
The term Split-Fuseki refers to openings where a player splits the parallel cornerstones of his opponent at the earliest moment, i.e. within the first 5 moves, so that the splitting stone can't be pincered (= two-point-extension possible in miai). It is an anti-moyo & fighting strategy. Split-Fusekis among top players are very rare, though seen once in a while. Some professionals experimented with it in the 30's of the 20th century. In the diagrams one can see two examples of Split-Fusekis.
