Joachim's Ko-Semeai - Putting the Cart
Before the Horse (2013 - 2015)
1b1b - White Chooses the
"Fake" Punishment Semeai
( 977) (Referenced by 995) This is the position just before White captured the ko in the upper right for the first time. Black's large group has nine liberties (3 * c, 5 * b, k); this means that he is safe from losing this group through the Punishment Semeai here. But there is the approach-move liberty at k. |
|
: Please note that this "fake" Punishment Semeai is not available for White in general, because White's success depends on Black's current weakness in the top left corner. |
