Hiya,
I reviewed a professional game a few years ago in which there was a series of elephant jumps by both players. Poking out the elephant eye was disadvantageous for both sides so instead both sides played diagonals avoiding playing at the center resulting in a shape like this.
I have been searching for hours without getting anywhere. I have a feeling it was a relatively modern game with Lee Sedol as one player, however, I have been second guessing myself since and it might have been a game by Go Seigen, too.
Does this ring a bell for anyone?
I'll continue my search meanwhile...
Best,
Baron

Re: Searching for specific game with series of elephant jump
That looks right! Thanks a lot! I think I might've seen it on Perception of Meijin on GoGameGuru's BadukTV English. Too bad they've discontinued the content...
