Beginner Exercise 23 Solution
   

Solution by lavalyn:

[Diagram]
Diag.: Snapback on both sides

In symmetrical positions, one useful proverb is to play on the point of symmetry. White cannot defend both snapbacks (without loss of generality the left side is defended) and thus the only real eye in the White group is the marked point - White dies a horrible death.


[Diagram]

Black one here is incorrect. After White 2, she is assured of the top and the bottom eye.
