Blighting/discussion

Sub-page of Blighting

Could we find another, better example for 'blighting' ?

In the given example above:

[Diagram]
shapes  

I would like to check whether white+circle is the best answer or
something else, e.g.

[Diagram]
shapes  

this is not good for W.

[Diagram]
shapes  

or

[Diagram]
shape alternatives  
[Diagram]
bad W shapes  
[Diagram]
B2 is not successful  
[Diagram]
bad W shapes - miai I and K  
[Diagram]
Isn't Black well-off?  

A and B are miai
If W blocks at B, W cuts at A and threatens D or C.
If W connects with A or G, B still can enter at E.

In any of above cases, the marked white+circle feel dead.
That's why I tried to find any good way for White in above situation - however to no avail.
If so, then above allegedly bad blighting sequence is actually a good one, isn't it? tderz


This sort of thing often happens in beginner games:

B4 is a mistake: black+circle is blighted. B4 should be at W5.
