Black's unnecessary connection at the upper edge is a mistake here.

Black plays 2/2 reductions.

Please assume the rejection of Dany's Sacrifice (, ) played before.

Capture Variation:

Compared to the superordinate variation ...

• Black captured one White stone at the upper edge, so gaining one point.
• In the upper right, White gained two points of territory, due to her eye in the centre.

In total, Black lost one point.

White + 2 => White + 3

Semeai Variation:

Compared to the superordinate variation ...

• In the upper right, White gained two points of territory, but captured one Black stone less, so the net effect is zero.

Black + 4 => Black + 4
