Beginner Exercise 61 / Solution

[Diagram]
Solution (White 6 connects at 1)

Black's four in a row on the second line is good enough for an eye, and he can make the second in the space in the middle (a and b miai). If White does not respond to the cut in the indicated way, she will be captured, solving Black's problems.


[Diagram]
Failure

The clamp at B1 is wrong. White can connect at W2, and to secure the eye on the top, Black must connect at B3. After W4, there is only one eye at the top. See six die but eight live for more information.

Ta?: What is the response to W2 at B3?


[Diagram]
W2 at B3

Hikaru79: The response to W2 at B3 is B3 at W2. After this diagram here, white's group is too short of liberties to escape capture.
