Strange things happen at the 1-2 point !
After Black captures two stones at 6, White throws in with 7 at 5 (next diagram: 1 = 7 here)
If Black connects with 2, White 3 creates a snapback. If Black 2 at A, White 3 again does the trick.
KarlKnechtel: This diagram seems to suggest that a and b are miai, but I'm not convinced:
Isn't this seki? If black tries to play at either a or b the resulting capture leaves a living BentFourInTheCorner, since in each case there are miai to cut the space into two parts. unkx80: This is not seki, this is a dead group. Please refer to Two By Three Box. Also, what you called the Bent Four In The Corner should be simply termed as Bent Four. KarlKnechtel: (After referring as requested) Ah. I neglected that black's play at a would capture the group with the outside liberties filled :) Forest and trees are miai in my vision it seems ;) Also, could someone refute this white 1 below (which was my instinctive, 5-seconds-of-thought answer):
unkx80: Of course white 1 is wrong. Otherwise this diagram is perfect. KarlKnechtel: I can get *something* right at least then ;) And just to follow up, white 3 at 4 leaves a dead shape in the large corner eye, and black plays 4 at a to prevent a second eye. Right? unkx80: Yes.
