In modern Go the 4-4-point has prevailed over the 3-4 point in many opening strategies. With it, you can see secute the corner with one move only, to develop fast and play very influence oriented. The weak point of the 4-4-point, however, is the 3-3-point with which the corner territory can be catched. Also, the 3-3-point itself has developed into an attractive opening move, because it has the same advantages as the 4-4-point, but is territorial instead of influence oriented. In this book, Cho Chikun 9p analyzes the significance of the 3-3-point and unfolds it with examples from many of his own games.
