I recently came across this snapback tesuji on the first line which I hadn't seen before and found rather cute.

You can see the full game (and how white sacrificed those 4 stones at the top to set up the liberty shortage for the snapback to work) at http://gosensations.com/?id=2&server_id=3&new_id=865

Thanks.

I like snapbacks with capturing stones that are themselves in atari.

Cool, thanks for sharing!

Coincidentally, I just came across a problem in the same vein.

Edit: Actually, no snapback there, but the shape is similar.

Über dude, you don't have the sgf, do you? My browser is re-routing Go Sensations to some other site.

I suppose all those links to Casinos etc. Dinerstein puts on his sites for SEO means he can get branded as malware.
