|  | 64 									<strong>Solution 6B</strong></b> This way of playing is feasible, but inferior because it produces | 
|  | 65 									one point less for Black than the preferred (game) solution of 6E. Note that W4 is essential, because |

|  | 126 									This forced B3 to connect, and although this produced an empty triangle, it was acceptable because it retained Sente by forcing W4 |
