Re: Totsugeki's Problems No. 2

Apologies for being away. I came back from X-mas and my supervisor wanted me to rewrite a lot of my thesis. Answer is 4-dot I you have 1-dot 1-dot 2-dot then you can accept 3-dot making 4-dot redundant. From here you don't want to try to hope to draw 5-dot. If you wanted that you should have discard...
