Yose Dictionary Erratum1
    Keywords: EndGame

Kano's Yose Dictionary, p. 20, diagram 2:

[Diagram]
Black error

Indeed, Black has erred, but Kano blames B1. Kano ignores the fact that B3 and W8 are miai, and that Black's error is B3.


[Diagram]
Correct play

B3 gets tedomari.
B1, B3 is usually wrong. As it has an atomic weight of 1, Black should normally let White play there. But in this case it is correct.
See Infinitesimals.

Note: B1, -- and, in fact, the whole play --, shows that Kano assumed that the surrounding area was White's territory. See Assumptions of Yose Problems.
