 I have to say, Black's position is extremely unusual for Go.  The two uppermost stones are on 4-4 and 3-4 (counted from the edge of the board as 1).  A 4-4 opening invites a corner invasion, which could be a disaster in a 9x9 game, especially if your opponent has another corner.  A one stone handicap is pretty common, as this would just mean playing without komi (the few points white gets to counter black's advantage for going first).  Playing on the handicap points (3-3 in 9x9, and 4-4 in 19x19) are usually considered just decent starting points, apart form their use in handicapped games.  Of course, there are many different openings, especially in even games, so there's plenty of different moves to play.  But 4-4 in 9x9 still seems exceedingly unusual.
