Solution

The objective of this problem is to introduce the technique of W1, which captures the black+circle stone. It also ensures the life of the White group.

If B2 pushes in, then W3 is the standard second line capture, which ensures an eye for White.

[Diagram]

Solution - if black cuts

Black's cut with B2 is soon captured.
