Go Problem of the Week

Like my Aikido Technique of the Week, the Go Problem of the Week idea didn't seem to take off as quickly/consistently as I had originally planned. I'm going to try to rectify that, and in interest of rectification, here's the next problem:

What should Black do to capture the marked White stones?



Black could move at 1, making sacrificing a stone to force White's hand:



White has to capture the stone with a move at 2 and then connect the two groups at 4 after Black plays at 3. Black moves at 5, putting all of the White stones in atari...White has no escape:

Go Problem of the Week

In addition to Aikido, I've been trying to improve my Go game...with that in mind, I am going to try to go through a different Go problem every week here. And for the first one...

What should black do to capture the marked white stones?



Once Black 1 is played below, the two marked white stones are as good as captured. If White 2 was played at Black 3, Black could have played at A, and ultimately capture even more of White's stones.
