Here, the two black stones at the bottom are in atari. Atari means that the stones
can be taken out on the next move.
|
|
|
In this case, the two black stones are captured by White 1. White can play here
because Black was in atari and White gained liberties by capturing.
|
|
|
This is the result.
|
||
These eight white stones are connected and have one point of territory. Black cannot
play in the center of this shape right now, because a stone there would just be taken out.
|
||
But if Black blocks all the outside liberties of the white stones, white will be in atari.
|
||
Now Black can play at 1 and take out all the white stones. Black can't play at 1 if
White has even one liberty on the outside, because White would not be in atari.
|
||
This is the result.
