Protect the side that is weakened by .

![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/1/99a8804cec8dfd229e7ecff94aa4ad02.png) | Failure at 3 |
White can't play at the marked point because of shortage of liberties.

![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/37/c4ffa0b3a7924662f365e75d12dffe7c.png) | Failure 1 |
The stones turn the hane at into an atari to which White must react, so that Black can take away the second eye with .
![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/28/e5c6b6294a19f33836ca53c6a2b89e81.png) | Failure 2 |
This is punished the same way as her mistake in the follow-up to the correct answer (see above).
![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/28/6cb50cff8c69f3edeeeee05e6fe7ac1d.png) | Failure 3 |
Enlarging the eye space at invites Black to play at the vital point . Now and are miai. After , White has to prevent the capture and take a liberty at a upon which Black takes away the other eye at b.
![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/13/fb657b8d5ef9212b12090229091f480f.png) | Failure 4 |
Connecting at in this way makes poor eye shape. Black plays on the vital point of this shape. Even if White continues with at a, Black will be able to almost fill her eye space with a farmer's hat.
![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/33/b3cd8595081aa2a216beaac57460e0ac.png) | Failure 5 |
Connecting at here is symmetric to Failure 4 and is once again countered by playing on the vital point.
Addition:
![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/46/48d595554bc26476f504d41d3f63d91f.png) | White is dead |
In this symmetric situation, both leg?s of the white group have no liberties outside of the EyeSpace. Now a move at a or at b will be answered by a move at the point diagonally underneath. White is dead.
