have questions about life and death problem (in my game)

Post by plu3m »

Hi everyone :)
This is my today game. I have some question about life and death at White's group on the right side of the board.
(trouble happens when Black cut at :b141: )
I resign after this white group is died.

And here're my questions :
-Can this white group live? (if it live, how? ;-) )
-Are there better ways for white to do before the black's cutting? (at :b141:)

would love comments that are not relate to this white group too :D

PS. sorry for my bad english

Thank you for every replies. :tmbup:

1) S10 looks like the problem, it makes your eyespace smaller and doesn't deal with his forcing moves, S12 lives.

2) You have to let black cut, everything else just weakens your floating center group
Tactics yes, Tact no...
