Black cut at 1  

problem: Black just cut at .

idea 1:  

tderz: seals in.

idea 2:  

tderz: seals in.

idea 1:  

tderz: with present, cannot seals in, but moves out in sente, threatening a.

Black could only block at b if

• the ladders to x or y are good (for capturin black a)

• • but black would simply hane c (threatening double atari a) , white defends (e.g. d) black captures with e and white cannot cut and seal with f.
  • hence, , directly white a, black e white c looks better, but also has weaknesses after Bb-Wd-Bg-Wh- black i or f.
    • ...Bi-Wf-Bk-Wl-Bm (double treat)

Concluding: with present, this tactic does not work. Black has to take gote or a large loss.
