Black connects at the top left, defending his corner territory.

:
White gives atari at Black's single stone at the top right, answering Black's kikashi "late".

: (122 738f)
White's last move did not occupy a liberty in the Main Semeai, so Black is able to continue with the endgame by defending the territory of his lower left corner.
However, defending the lower left corner is not as large as defending the upper left corner would have been, so White gained a lot by starting the endgame there "early".

Alternatively, Black could also continue with occupying White's liberties, and connect his second hasami-tsuke stone with a move at later.

We will now explain why following the course of the Professional Solution after Black's kikashi in the top right corner results in a loss by one point for Black (instead of a jigo), if it is played too late in the game (e.g. after all the endgame on the left side), when Black will be unable to get sufficient compensation for White's earlier atari at that lost a move in the Main Semeai.
In the variation of the Professional Solution wherein Harry's hasami-tsuke in the upper right corner is played ( 738) – after the resolving of the hanezeki – the points of and are miai. Black's large group in the upper right has seven liberties (, ).
