![[Diagram]](../../diagrams/45/e4a5fa9c1ba91dc78665732b8c2eca18.png) | Why is it Joseki? |
Answer: a black play at a is not sente against White's corner group.
Therefore White accepts a local loss (only one more point of territory against a difficult-to evaluate increase of thickness for Black) because it negates a sente move to the opponent: this is judged equal by pro's.
How many advanced amateurs, even at Shodan's level, are really able to perform such an evaluation on their own, without being told beforehand???!!??
