: ( 222dw) | |
: : (A 222dy) It is too late now to give the atari at the top, instead. White would simply ignore it. | |
|
: : No valiable ko threats => White would capture Black's cut-off stones (after he occupied White's upper liberty to give atari) |
: There are no viable ko threats left for him. If he continued the fight, White would capture his cut-off stones after he occupied the last outside liberty of White's left-hand group, to give atari at the top. Continuing with the Central Semeai is useless as well. Black's large group at the right has only three outside liberties left, and so no chance at all to win the Central Semeai. | |
At the left, White's group is three liberties () away from reaching her decision point. At the right, Black's large group has only nine liberties left. White will win the Punishment Semeai. White will win the game by a very large margin. | |
