11-16 22-18

11-16, called Bristol, is a move from Black's single corner, but toward the side of the board instead of to its center. It is considered Black's third strongest opening. White's 22-18 (called the Bristol Single) or 24-19 replies secures him a slight edge.

Note that 11 16 22-18, 9-13 18-14 -> 21-14 is identical to 9-13 22-18, 11-16 18-14 -> 21-14.

Note that 11-16 22-18, 9-14 18-9 is identical to 9-14 22-18, 11-16 18-9.
