These are from the Cho Chikun collection I think. It's from the collection that "tasuki" posted on his website if I recall correctly.

Here you go: It's alway black to play. Live with your group or kill white's. You have to look for the best move - which means that sometimes ko may be a solution - if there is no better option.

And these are the moves I came up with early in the morning in the train :mrgreen:
My handwriting is not especially good, but here it's also because the paper is really small and the train feels like a mixer.
I also only mark the first move as there is not enough space for anything else.

I am especially interested in problem 258. Is move 3 some kind of tesuji - and does it even work here? [move 2 is meant to connect, as far as I could read anything else (including the move to the right of X) fails for white]
