Welcome to Round 7 of the L19 Go Problem Championship.

Problems are a bit easier this week. If experience has taught me anything in hosting this competition, persistence typically leads to success :-)

All problems are black to play. As usual, provide your solutions either via hide tags, or direct private message to me.

That's a big mistake!

So this doesn't work as well:

$$ | . . . . . . . . . . .
$$ | . . . . O O . . . . .
$$ | . . O O X X O O O , .

$$ | . O 6 7 2 4 0 1 O . .
$$ | . . X 8 9 X . X O . .
$$ ----------------------[/go]


So to avoid the T-shape, B3 should be:

$$ | . . . . . . . . . . .
$$ | . . . . O O . . . . .
$$ | . . O O X X O O O , .

$$ | . O 6 7 2 4 8 1 O . .

Oops, actually black's second move in my problem 3 was wrong ... Some points need to be deducted, I guess :)

Thanks for your honesty, gamesorry. I notice now that your ordering was different. I'll take a closer look going forward :-)

I've updated your points.
