Re: Simple connection question
Well, it really depends who takes the ko first, doesn't it?Mef wrote:How hard of a kick are we talking about?jts wrote:making a ko is better than a kick in the face.)
Having dodged the most difficult question, here's another connection problem for Peter. Now, I know that there are many players on this forum who know how to fix a cutting point, so lets give Peter (or any other interested beginners) a few cracks at it first. Black to move.

looks to be vital for Black to stop White connecting everything with 2 eyes. Now if White replies at A, Black wins the group via a snapback. If White tries to cause trouble at B, it looks like Black can contain it and then extinguish the White group.
