my first thought was (c) because his stone are not connected and it looked like a overplay
then i was thinking (a) just to kill all hope of doing something on the top-side, but all of a sudden i could hear yilun yang saying inside weak group move out! so i choose (b), he still needs to connect his floating stone somewhere and my inside weak group still has plenty of time to get stabel, i lost a big group on the bottom but im not letting up i must stay FOCUSED :rambo: every move counts!

i had to dig deep to find this move :study: & im praying its not a mistake! :-|

my inside weak group is still a inside weak group but i cant have this guy runnning around like crazy in the center :twisted:

its a Global move to say the least, basically it serves as a pivot point to keep building my moyo, im thick all around and if i can solidify this area, i can grab some easy points

here are some thoughts in sgf form.
its kinda random IMO but im just trying to find out whats his goal and how can i stop it in its tracks so bear with me, and its a good way to show u guys how i plan to use this move, but its alot of ways to play so thats why i put it in sgf format just to make it easy on the both of us :lol: .

i think i will play with the stones some more & hopefully find some better variations :cool:

it builds a nice wall and blocks off alot of points
but u know guys its hard to predict this middle game battle
so i will let him figure out what he is going to do
and i will just take my time and try to find balance and counter globally
:cool:

but as for this nobi, it stregthens my single stone and keeps me running ahead toward the center, its calm yet effective

ok its time for next hand

Wouldn't the hane at 'a' be more effective here ? It seems like black can handle the cut and it would have erased the option to jump to 'b' for W which looks good now.

i think this is the biggest play for me right now, its slow and solid and can help me get my inside weak group break-out and it kills a direction for white to run to for saftey because his group is still light with no eyes...
now he has to run to (a) before I get there
he might go for the b-c cut
but whatever he does im comming for him
:rambo: the x's and o's look like stones to me :rambo:

I thought quite a bit about this move. If I felt like I was still behind, I might have tried to push deeper in. However, looking at the board, if feels like I've regained enough ground to make this my game.

Of course, I haven't counted, so I could be way off in my judgment. However, there is still a lot of aji left all over the place. Time to start reducing the number of places he can attack while keeping an eye out for opportunities to simply put this game away.

have you every thought about a move for so long, including complicated variations and all, and then u end up with the simplest move. its crazy because i found a good cut sequence and everything and even a good tenuki move even though i don't have the time for tenuki right now but i choose the solid move instead. U know save my group, stay focused and play for the long run.

here is a sgf to show u what i have been thinking
i had 5 moves in mind, check it out

I see no reason not to do this right now, and it can now safely cut further into the center.

I've been working 14 hour days on a single issue for work (stupid pager), so I don't trust my reading right now. Sorry for the delay.

I REALLY want to try L18 ... for some reason ... but my mental state isn't quite where it should be ...

If feels like a move I want to play, but I think my reading is currently in "hopeful" mode where I'm not reading optimal defenses from my opponent.

Ok, I decided that it's time to take some of the big endgame moves in sente. The center has been reduced by a fair amount, so let's reduce the amount my opponent can claw back.

CUT FIRST THINK LATER
well u guys already know i been workin out some cut sequences on this side of the board before
i like this it is more direct and since im stonger on this side then i was before
i feel like it has more power
i was waiting for a time to go back on the attack
so this was bound to happen as soon as i got the time
cut first think later
next hand :study:

Oh, so he wants to play it that way? Let's threaten to connect up with my lone stone. erasing his territory in this corner is HUGE. He can't keep ignoring me to capture two relatively unimportant stones.

Isn't the threat to make a large center territory?
