Misses a famous tesuji.
At first glance, White 1 seems to easily kill Black.
But Black 2 gives White a nasty surprise. This well-known,
but surprising, tesuji occurs in numerous situations.
White, who is in a shortage of liberties, has to make 2 moves
to capture Black's single stone throw-in. Black can use that
extra move to win the semeai through 6.
Correct.
But White 1 is a resource that Black has no answer for.
Black cannot stop White's throw in at 3 to force a ko.
