▲ ▲ ▲ Gomoku Game Contest №2. Test your logic and take $ 0.5 SBD!
Hello, Steemians! Let's launch the second contest right now!
Introduction
This game is really ancient and you probably heard about the rules. The classic gameboard is 15x15 empty intersections.
Players are placing stones, black and white one after another. First player who get "an unbroken row of exactly five stones (not six or more) horizontally, vertically, or diagonally" wins. In other words, it is "Five in row" game.

for details.
Contest
I decided to make a contest devoted to this wonderful game.
I'm still a minnow on Steem and so prize for the first right answer is 0.5 SBD.
It's also necessary to explain how you get this answer.
What threats you create and why all possible opposite answers will lose.
Contest lasts for three days 1, 2 and 3 of September. After that I create a post with solution and choose the first answer from comments with shortest way to win. Also the reward will be sent.
Task
Actually it is pretty straightforward, however long and fun tactics. Be careful! White are ready to attack right now :-)
Black to move. Find the shortest win for black.

Hello again! So this might not be the shortest way but here's what I've got:
Black: H10, White: F10
Black: K10, White: J10
Black: M6, White: L7
Black: K7, White: K9
Black: K4, White: K5
Black: L5
Then N7 and I2 are open for the win!
P.S. it was definitely better to do it visually then to do it in my head, I just used MS Paint xD
Very well done! :-) Send you reward!
