Joachim's Ko-Semeai - Putting the Cart
Before the Horse (2013 - 2015)
@
FLAG 10: ( 1066) However, one of Black's liberties is the approach-move liberty at k in the ko in the upper right. Thus, this ko will become a hanami-ko for White, with Black being unable to answer any White ko-threat. Sufficient gain on the left side of the board would compensate for the loss of White's groups in the hanezeki. Please note that - contrary to the main line of Joachim's Ko-Semeai, but similar to White's hane on the upper edge - the feasibility of this option for White depends on the availability of an appropriate ko-threat in the upper left corner. |
