Problem 18

The book Get Strong at the Endgame says: If White 2 at3, Black plays a, White b, Black 5, capturing five stones.

Problem 18

White doesn't necessarily lose five stones: if she plays 4 here (Black can't descend), she captures a stone but loses 1 point of territory - and Black plays a and gains sente in comparison to the correct solution. This is the main line of White 2 and the real reason why White 2 is inferior.
