3. A 18. |
4. C 18. |

1. B 4. This stone is sacrificed, but there is no loss because it is so threatening that Black must play twice in order to make his position secure, meanwhile White advances on line A. |
2. B 3. Black's best move because it defends the connection at C 5, and also prevents White from trying to connect at D 1. |
3. A 7. White gains one "Me" by this move. |
4. A 6. |
