First, check the recent games of Seo Joonghui 5p in the Korean B league. http://www.go4go.net/go/games/byplayer/1237 Somebody played a rare 4-9 opening against him. Then in the next game, he used it against his opponent and actually managed to win. Then there's a very unusual game in the Japanese Shinjin O tournament: http://www.go4go.net/go/games/sgfview/57851 Its first move is at 4-8 position, followed by four 3-3 moves, and later followed by 2 second-line moves approaching the 3-3 stones. |

That Japanese game is bonkers! Do you think they were drunk, or maybe white thought if black is going to do weird moves he wanted to show he can out-weird him and still win? |

But I think White's initial idea in the Japanese game was quite nice. When faced with one of these weird openings, just imitate Black rather than try to counter what is certainly a prepared opening. I'll have to remember it for future reference.

There is also this one from korean B league: http://www.go4go.net/go/games/sgfview/58214 White 2,10 and 12 are really unusual, and there is a lot of other crazy moves by white during this (short) game. |

Kim kiwon started playing some Black hole-ish openings recently without having history in pro games of doing so. |

For each game, I post its board position at move 30. You can see he is really after some sort of cosmic style. http://www.go4go.net/go/games/sgfview/55924 Attachment: 55924.png [ 860 Bytes | Viewed 6392 times ] http://www.go4go.net/go/games/sgfview/57837 Attachment: 57837.png [ 850 Bytes | Viewed 6391 times ] http://www.go4go.net/go/games/sgfview/57997 Attachment: 57997.png [ 667 Bytes | Viewed 6391 times ] |

Also Onoda Takuya's 2nd-line approaching move is not an one-off. See another example: http://www.go4go.net/go/games/sgfview/57325 |
