    Keywords: Tactics

A group involved in a capturing race can have an eye. The liberties provided by that eye are called eye liberties. Here, "liberties" is used in its second meaning, namely a play needed to capture a group in a capturing race.

Small eyes have as many eye liberties as their number of empty spaces. See SmallEyeLiberties.

Big eyes have more eye liberties than their number of empty spaces. See big eye liberties.

The player who knows the sequence (1,2,3,5,8,12,17) has an advantage over a player who has to read the capturing race.
