What if White had cut at 76 (1 here)?

Bad ladder for Black

If White cuts, the ladder is bad for Black.

So, what's the best move for black in this situation?

--FCS

Black captures

Black shouldn't try to play out the ladder. If White tries to connect with 5, Black blocks at 6. The three white stones will struggle. --MortenPahle

Another possibility

After Black 6 there's nothing left to do for White. --ArnoHollosi
