Triple kakari

Black: I'll just play the 3-3 point next to live in the corner...

Yet another 3-3 invasion: W2 elsewhere.

White: Why not, I know all the 3-3 point josekis...

Black: If I play at a next, black is heavy. Play elsewhere!


Tenuki in Ko fights

Fighting over a 1/3-point ko in the endgame (B2 off-board tenuki)

Black: That isn't a threat!


And finally... tenuki in yose.
