Billywoods' recent diagrams contain a bad misread by him could be very costly.
$$Bm4
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Bm4Billywoods is right that this variation seems bad for black. However, I don't see any reason for black to passively capture the white stone with 12. If black connects, things suddenly look very unhappy for white since a and b are miai.
$$Bm1 Unhappy continuation for white

$$Wcm1 White's best move imo
