I didnt find a deadly move for Black and taken corner instead. What would you do? If u were black would you attack that white group? If you were white what would you do? -- I'm not sure I like black's play at H17, and black gave himself awkward shape in the corner, so perhaps C is called for. Between A and B, black has more potential on the right, so that's the side to make small.] ;W[cn]WL[731.413] ;B[hd]BL[759.712] ;W[hc]WL[729.892] ;B[id]BL[751.689] ;W[ic]WL[726.92] ;B[jd]BL[735.449]LB[gd:B][kd:A]TR[je]C[I just sacrificed that stone to make tigers mouth.

But there were many more big points and i kept my calm. What would u do here? --- You could consider probing at Q18, but it may be too late. I prefer C over D, because it's more secure in the corner. A is undoubtedly big too.] ;W[ql]WL[616.086] ;B[nq]BL[677.341]LB[oq:A]C[A is pretty much the only move, right? --- Not really. I find A to be rather awkward in fact, due to the Q10/R8 exchange.

It took a while though and i made bad trades imo. Should have gone A? or C maybe? ---- C feels quite straightforward. A is aggressive, but looks playable. B feels a bit wishy-washy, neither here nor there. You want to either attack both groups at once, or lean on one to build an attack on the other. You could also consider stabilizing moves that aim at the right group or look to make black force you to play C. I'm thinking about O6 here, but haven't looked at it in detail.] (;W[in]WL[504.373] ;B[en]BL[609.361]LB[ck:A][cl:B][dl:C]C[What would you play here? Maybe A would be better? ---- Tenuki.
