StoneEscape2

    Keywords: Problem

The problem so far:

[Diagram]
This Black stone to escape White's grasp and live.  

While similar to the previous Stone Escape problem, White has an extra stone on the board, along with subtle shape differences. The key to think about is that the timing of moves is more important than before.


[Diagram]
White mistake...  

The White play of W2 is a wrong move. This allows Black to make a similar shape to the one in the previous problem.


[Diagram]
Correct White response  

White should extend the outer stone in an attempt to net the Black stones.

Solution  

After Black's B3, he can either escape at a or at b:

[Diagram]
White blocks a  
[Diagram]
White blocks at b
