Sente first! :)

B1 is sente because if W2 is played somewhere else Black can play at a and White won't be able to protect against the capture at b because of lack-of-libs.

And live!

Now thanks to the throwin White can't play at a (If White does, black simply plays at b and captures more stones) because of another lack-of-libs. Black captures the 3 stones if so and lives.
