A GO problem.
Yesterday 6:08pm
To determine whether point A is a real eye or a false eye, we need to check if it is completely surrounded by black stones and if the opponent (white) can play there without being captured.
In this configuration, point A is adjacent to both black and white stones. Specifically, there is a white stone to the left of point A, meaning that point A is not completely surrounded by black stones.
Therefore, point A is a false eye.
The answer is: False.

But even if white surrounds the liberties of the three stones on the outside, the three stones still have 2 liberties on the inside, and white can't play either point due to suicide rule. Thus the eye is real. The eye becomes false if the red marked stone is captured, which could be possible if white fully surrounds the group and makes a ko. But for now, it's a real eye.

In this configuration, point A is adjacent to both black and white stones. Specifically, there is a white stone to the left of point A, meaning that point A is not completely surrounded by black stones.
However, the black group surrounding point A has internal liberties that prevent white from playing at point A without being captured. This is because the black group has other liberties that would prevent the white stone from being captured immediately.
Therefore, point A is a real eye.
The answer is: Real.
