The only solution is the atari at B1.

Solution  

If W2 here, then B3 captures and lives.

Solution  

If W2 makes a throw-in, then B3 captures the W2 stone and lives.

B3 here would be a failure...

[Diagram]
Failure 1  

... because W4 would capture all the Black stones in a snapback.

[Diagram]
Failure 2  

B1 here puts all the Black stones into self-atari, hence a failure.

[Diagram]
Failure 3  

This is also a failure for Black, since Black will not be able to avoid a ko. See Beginner Exercise 194 for more.

seki?  

It may be abusing the problem, however I think that if black played B1 it will lead most probably to seki

Dead  

fractic: B1 only leads to death.
