Beginner Exercise 127 / Solution
Sub-page of BeginnerExercise127
Kaiou I think that the 2-1 point is Black's vital point.
unkx80: Solution by kaiou is correct. Addendum below:
demetria: With the above solutions, black looks to have only false eyes. Is there any way to make this a true living shape?
If white takes the next vital point, A, it leaves black with one eye (or 2 small eyes at best, which is better than nothing). If black takes the vital point the eyes are still false. White can follow up with B as well.
Here, white can force black to ruin his own eye. White can at this point threaten a capture if she can manage to seal black off the rest of the way and win a ko at A. The point here is : How does black prevent all this from happening?
unkx80: My answer to your queries is in the two diagrams below.
