Note: 5 to the right of 2 would fail because after 6 and the throw in at 7 white connects at 5

This ko is better for black. If white takes the ko and black takes the two stones, white still has to connect. In the other ko, white connected, then black took 2 stones.

[go]$$Bc a&b are miai for B after this sequence
$$ +---------------------
$$ | . X . . . . . . . .
$$ | O O O O O X . X . .
$$ | O X X O X X . . . .
$$ | X . X X O O . X X ,
$$ | . X X O B . O O . .
$$ | . 2 3 O . . . . . .
$$ | . O 1 O b O . . . .
$$ | . a 4 5 . . . . . .
$$ | . . . . . . . . . .[/go]
