EndgameTesuji2/Is sagari better than hane

Bill: Is the sagari better than the hane for White?

That's not an easy question. The difference game suggests that sometimes one is right, sometimes the other. That's not unusual with medium sized yose. :-)

I have spent a little time on this, and it seems to me (assuming that Black's sagari is sente), that hane by White may be able to gain one point in circumstances that will hardly ever arise.

Sagari  

Hane  

Surely Black will get his sente in first. ;-)
