DaveSigaty: Usually in a problem when we say White kills, we mean without resorting to ko. In this case how does White kill outright after Black 2? I must be missing something - as usual :-)

unkx80: This is a famous classical shape and if I remember correctly, the correct answer is a ko. The manga did not show any variations for this one.

jvt: Yes. I should have checked. This is indeed a very famous problem. It is problem 45 from part 3 of Gokyo Shumyo. There is a slightly different version in Xuan Xuan Qi Jing and Guanzi Pu.

Jasonred is dumb?

Please correct my flawed play? I thought this might be it, but it seems not... could someone also read out the sequence for the proper solution? Thanks!

That isn't how I would read it.

Anonymous: White goes first in this problem, not Black.

I read many things, but ultimately I couldn't kill a "smart" black, if black went first. Good job.
