If black simply pushes with B1 then he can't continue at a because of a shortage of liberties; thus W4-B5 becomes white's sente.

After B1 white has to draw back to W2.

Incorrect - monkey jump B9 at W4  

The monkey jump doesn't work here, the ladder is completed with white+circle.

Tapir: white+circle is not even necessary for the ladder. Running along the side or locally white+square is enough.


I had trouble reading out this white response, so I'm including the diagram.

It looks like after black 11 at 4 white's 8,10 group is a liberty short. -hqn
