[Diagram]
Black to win the capturing race

Eratos Didn't realise there was a capturing race for a while there! Does this move do it? I can't seem to find a white reply...

This W2 also doesn't work



Bill:

[Diagram]
Approach Ko

W2 makes an approach ko. After taking the ko back White cannot win it right away, but must play atari in the corner to make it a regular ko.

4 at 1

Confused: This seem to work better, if I'm not missing something.

Shaydwyrm: This looks correct to me, although 5 appears to be unnecessary - white cannot play atari anywhere even after 4, so black can tenuki...likewise, white should not play 4, since she has no follow-up.

unkx80: B1 and B3 is the solution. Of course, Shaydwyrm's point on W4 and B5 is correct.
