I've run across a pattern in goproblems.com that I find intriguing. It has to do with getting your opponent to create a 3-stone L-shape in the corner and then having the opponent capture a group of your pieces with it. You can then recapture the 3 stones.I am unable to attache an image, so have a look, for example, at problem 1663 by Wervyn. Is this 'under the stones'?

I wonder, is it just a snapback? Somehow it seems exotic to me...
