Main line  

Later, if B4, then W5 captures the B4 stone and lives.

Wrong  

Leaving out the hane enables Black to play hane himself. The most White can get out of it is to starting a (terribly disadvantageous) ko at a.


[Diagram]
Wrong (ii)  

The throw-in at B4 and the atari at B6 will throw the entire black group into a ko.

Wrong (ii) (cont)  

If White connects the ko at W3, the atari at B4 blows the eyeshape away. If White doesn't, a black capture at B3 continues the ko.

Wrong  

White W1 here doesn't threaten anything, giving Black the time to make an eye false at B4.
