Beginner Exercise 62 Solution
Highly speculative solution by lavalyn:
White 1 nullifies the threat of the false eye by creating a tiger shape defending the eye's vital point. KarlKnechtel: I'm convinced this is it. I saw White 1 as playing at what looked like a key point of the space surrounded by Black, and also making good shape - but the shape I saw was the nameless one made by White 1 and the marked stones. :) unkx80: Sometimes good feeling is important in life and death situations. Often good feeling can help one in making the correct choices, such as White 1 in this diagram. But this feeling needs to be cultivated. =)
Of course, if there were a stone (black or white) at a, this defence wouldn't work because of damezumari.
unkx80: Black 6 is another possible play by Black. But when Black 8 makes a throw-in, White can connect at 9 as there is an extra liberty at a.
Just trying to create eye space doesn't work - Black makes an eye false.
unkx80: Sometimes White 1 is a common way of making an eye, but it fails here.
lavalyn While doing some revision and a bad edit: Don't get too clever thinking White has caught Black in snapback - White needs one more liberty for that!!!
