Here's a recent game from KGS. I won with time, but I'm a bit unsure what would have happened if the game had been played to the end?

I made a couple of bad mistakes, but I managed to get a center moyo, which opponent invaded. I feel confident that I would have killed his invasion, although he did harass my top group - either by living in the top or splitting his invading group and killing the left side of it first. Or is there something I'm missing - who is winning this game?

It's all down to whether Black dies or not. With the aji around N9, N11, G9 etc I'm not at all convinced Black's going to die, especially as he has sente right now. It's above my paygrade this one :P If Black was pro and I was White, Black would live. If Black was me and the pro was White, Black would die I suspect. So it's a close one to call for me.

Black can start with L8 and N9 kikashis and I'm quite convinced that there's enough aji/space for eyes.

Cheers,

If I were offered a chance to play that position against another 1D, and if I got to choose colors, I'd choose black. I would start with L7, and look to interpose N9 at the right time.
