The status is unsettled. Black to play lives and White to play kills.


Black to play

[Diagram]

Black can live

If Black plays first, he can live with B1. If W2 at B3 then W3 at a. Black wins the capturing race.


White to play

[Diagram]

White can kill

If White plays first, she can kill the Black group. W1 at B2 or W3 also kills.

Variation

Black can't play at b due to shortage of liberties. The common theme for this and the other variations is that white can make an eye in the stomach.
