White to play.
"Can white win the capturing race?"
It is multiple choice.
The answer is "yes".
I'm not talking about the black D2/3 group.
I think it is easy for white to get that one (true?).
It probably makes sense, so white has the left bottom corner.
But at first I thought this capture race was about the black B4 etc. group.
There, I've not been able to find a way for white to win.
It is very close, but white does not win.
Counting liberties, they look equal.
White has an eye, plus is quite strong on A8, C8 (I think, because A9, C9 are protected, though A6, C6 will take white more moves to kill).
So, if the exercise is/was not talking about the bottom left corner, is there a solution how white can kill the bigger black group in a capturing race??
(It would get white more points attacking that group, wouldn't it?)
