Shimajima's fuseki (April, 27th)

Post by Shenoute »

Last week, Shimajima Yohei 8p won a game using this fuseki. It's no big news but I find it refreshing to see something else than AI patterns these days.
Checking his last games at igo-kifu.com, he seems to be involved not infrequently in unusual openings, but usually on the receiving end. Maybe he decided now was his turn.
