+---. . , . , . .---+
    | . . . . . |

A sample game I played with a friend (neither of us are very good.)  

Result: White wins with 37 points of territory and 2 captured stones, while black has 40 points of territory and no captured stones, assuming the corect komi is at least 1.5 points for white.
