Xuanxuan Qijing Problem 248 / Solution

Solution

[Diagram]

Solution

The answer is tenuki.

The three white stones can't escape or make two eyes.

[Diagram]

White's Resistance

If W1 is at r, B2 would be at s.

[Diagram]

Cont. 1

Because there is no white stone at r, W3 at s doesn't work.

[Diagram]

Cont. 2

Since W9 W5 white+circle are under atari already, doing the same thing on the other side wouldn't capture any black stone.
