Nakade example 1

A nakade in the presence of cutting points

[Diagram]

Cutting points.

Normally, the rectangular six are alive (3 and a are miai), but in this position, because of the two marked stones, Black 1 is an atari, forcing White to answer at 2, after which Black 3 kills the group.

Bill: BTW, Black could play B3 first.
