Outcomes
Eventually, one of three things will happen.
- One player will decide that winning the ko immediately is more important than responding to her opponent's latest ko threat. The player will move so that her opponent cannot recapture the ko, and her opponent gets to follow up on his last ko threat, effectively making two moves in one area of the board.
- One player will run out of ko threats. That player will be forced to make a play that his opponent does not have to respond to immediately, and his opponent wins the ko immediately.
- One player will decide that playing elsewhere on the board is more important than continuing the ko. The opponent can either win the ko, or play elsewhere on the board.
