Beginner Exercise 29 Solution
W6 captures 2 stones, leaving equal number of liberties with black to move...
but maybe white has a better response? i'm not very good at this. i figured W2 because then she doesn't die immediately when forced to connect with 4.
KarlKnechtel: This appears correct to me. White 2 at 3 or 6 is damezumari, at 4 is met by black 3 at 2 (atari), and at 5 (or elsewhere taking a black liberty) by the same black 3 (connect-and-die).
lavalyn adds: Black can be even more direct - after Black 3 the marked Whites are in snapback.
Or if White defends the snapback, Black 3 puts the White group into atari.
Scartol: This is what I first came up with. I diagrammed it out so others could see what I didn't (until I made the diagram).. Looks good for black, but..
...when white plays the hane at 1, black is stuck. If black pushes at A, he is in self-atari.
