Variations of Our Solution (IIIb)

Tricking KataGo (Triple-Ko)

VAR (C) (A)

: ( 222aa)
Black gives atari from the corner.

:
White gives counter-atari at the upper edge.

:
Black must connect.

: ( 101 222iv)
White follows the course of the sequence that has been shown by KataGo to us.

However, with the Guzumi Exchange yet unplayed, it would be better for White to occupy the guzumi point herself.

: (101 222iw)
Black takes the opportunity to insert the Guzumi Exchange "late".

It would be a grave mistake to block at in the upper left, instead.

: (103 222ix)
White completes the Guzumi Exchange.

Reducing Black's upper left corner before, starting with a move at , would be mistaken. White would lose one point overall unnecessarily.

:
We have reached a change in the order of moves with Our Solution.

The final scores of the game will become White + 2 / Black + 4.
