Solution 8
1. i3-g3
1. i3-g3 is the only way out. An expensive solution,
indeed, but at least White is sure to save one of his GIPF-pieces.
In case Black would play 1. … c7-c5;xGg4, White can force him to
remove pieces on the c1-i3 line through 2. f1-d2. But Black will
most likely choose for the other option, i.e. 1. … h1-d4;xGe7, because
that obliges White to play 2. … g1-g5 to push the GIPF on g4 out
of danger. Apart from two pieces, that also costs him a move.
