Thanks for your reply! I've tried to make the links workable...
Hi!
Here is a situation, from phase1-phase5 (I hope you'll se the
pictures).
Phase1
The game is not over. With skilful play, the white group will die, and
White will be unable to live inside the black group.
Phase2
Phase3
Phase4
Phase5
In each of these, the game is not over. With skilful play, both groups
will live, and White will be unable to live inside the black group.
I've used SmartGo, which engine is based on GNUGo, and tried to make
some very beginner examples.
This is a #territory inside territory# type example. You'll see my
problem when you look at phase1-phase4, and after you look at phase5.
In phase5, all the black stones are dead.
No, they are alive. Even if White is a strong player and Black is a
beginner, that black group will live.
In all other cases they live,
and black also has some territory. Is this normal? Why is the phase5
situation differs from phase1-phase4.
Because the software you are using is getting things wrong.
What happens when two Go program plays against each other, and
encounter a similar siuation?
They continue playing. In the last four positions, the game is far from
finished. In the first position, White might recognise that it has no
chance of making a live group, and resign.
What if white that all the black stone
are dead, and black thinks the opposite?
They resume play, and try to capture the stones which they think are
dead.

I hope you'll understand me.. Thanks! Norbert
