RhysD (~10k): I think black can live (with most of his stones) locally by playing B1. I do feel like I'm missing something though...

[Diagram]

Black makes an eye and lives

[Diagram]

At best, white cuts off four stones

[Diagram]

White failure

This white attempt fails thanks to the eye which black made; black captures two stones.

[Diagram]

Black fails to live locally

If B1, then white can reduce the black group to one eye locally, and it must run.

[Diagram]

Black's resistance

Dieter: I think your analysis is correct but in the last diagram Black needn't play B7. Instead, he can resist like in this diagram. Now White will have to decide about a or b (I think a is best).
