Kanazawa Solution 65
   

[Diagram]
Diag.: Main line


[Diagram]
Diag.: Variation at 2

In the main line Black exchanges A for B first. If he doesn't, Black A will next be answered by White C, winning her two points. Playing as in the diagram keeps White's points as low as possible without throwing away ko-threats. (This is my fallible 1-kyu explanation, please review -- Dieter).



[Diagram]
Diag.: Variation at 6

If Black persist in falsening White's second eye, he suffers a double atari at 4.


[Diagram]
Diag.: A loss

If White cuts at 2 first, she suffers a loss when she is afraid of the ko.


[Diagram]
Diag.: The group is at stake in the ko

If she takes the ko with the marked stone however, she loses her group if she loses the ko (Black 1 and 3).
