Magic Of Go Solution 3
   

[Diagram]
Diag.: Clever play

W 6 elsewhere.

B 1 is a clever tesuji. After B 5 the local temperature drops to 3 1/3 points.
Later B 7 - W 8 is sente. If W 8 at a, White later needs a protective move?.
After W 8 the local temperature has dropped to 1. A play at b has a miai value of 1, a play at c has a miai value of 2/3.

B 1 has a miai value of 4 1/6.

(Note: While I am criticizing published solutions with incorrect values, getting them right is not always easy. This is my second version. In an earlier one I was off by 1/6 point.)
