Practical Endgame Test 5 / Attempts
![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/37/3dc35d4fb1f96a0d9dc1f9b57046b435.png) | White to play and win |
(Diagram copied for your convenience.)
Arno: my try.
![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/6/308c3c6ce126b00044c2d60d78b57ffa.png) | Arno's analysis |
I argue that the a-c points are miai. Therefor White should start at one of the d points.

Dave: What if is played at instead? Is it jigo then?
Arno: yes, looks like it :-(

... and White wins by 1 point.
Arno's 2nd try:

Bill: What if Black does not reply in the bottom left corner, but plays on the top side instead? E. g., instead of .
Arno: if Black plays at then White answers with at . Mutual damage. Eventually either Black answers on the lower left, or White connects to then answers Black's play at the top. In both cases W+1.
![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/34/466352f0e757093210afe3008237bc66.png) | 2nd try (continued) |
Again W+1.
