Well, if Black obliges with :b2:

and

, White has a great result! :bc:

has become a ridiculous play.

OC, Black is a 5 kyu, so he may oblige. Whoop-de-do!

(For the kibitzers, :b2:

would be better at "a".

)

In that case it's still fine for W:

The idea is still the same. Black's wall is useless here. W can give up :w3:

with a - c sequence. For B to capture :w1:

with 'd' is small, made smaller since the a - c exchange allows White to potentially capture d by ko with 'e' if needed.

The right play is the first line jump, :w3:

. Black cannot play :b6:

at 7 because of damezumari. :w7:

forms a 3 point nakade shape to kill.

As Takagawa says, The endgame is fighting strength.

To be sure, :bc:

is too close to Black's wall. However, I do not like :b4:

I think that this ko is quite playable for Black.

If White avoids the ko with :w3:

,

looks playable. Black is not really worried about pushing White into the corner, because Black is already strong there. (OC, that means that :bc:

was a mistake, but what can you say?

In the first diagram, :w5:

is obviously aji keshi.

Post by **Solomon** » Mon Oct 31, 2011 10:17 pm

If the intent is to take the corner, then there is no difference and it's not aji keshi because you'll need the exchange either way to play :w7:
