Handicap
[Plate 20] (C)
| White | Black | ||
| 1. | C 13. “Ogeima Kakari.” This is another method of commencing the attack; it does notattack the corner so directly, but it gives White a better chance on the sides orcenter. | 2. | C 15. This is to prevent White from playing at B 16. |
| 3. | G 17. White attacks from the other side in the same way. | 4. | E 17. Preventing White from entering at D 18; this secures the corner for Black. |
| 5. | C 17. This is a “Sute ishi” or sacrificed stone. White threatens to connect it withone side or the other. | 6. | B 16. |
The game is about even; if White does not play at C 17 on the fifth move, Black gets much the better of it.
