For this move I have considered both a and b below.

Both these moves feel important however if black gets b that seems worse than black getting a. Therefor I feel b is the correct move.

This move keeps sente and pushes out to the center and also begins to threaten to connect.

:w58: is another move that I think I remember at around their level. It's sente right? Yes, but so is extending. This move just induces black to fix his weakness while not getting much in exchange.

One common misunderstanding/confusion at these levels is good sente moves versus bad ones:

With :w58: - :b59: you immediately make a broken shape for yourself:

As Puppycakes noted, if you simply extend with :w1:, it's also sente, but with better shape:

Not all sente moves are good. Some are bad sente moves.

Sorry for my slow play... I will try and play faster.
My head hurts... :-?

Ok so here are some rambling thoughts

My group has a lot of aji here so I need to get more solidified before I venture too much further out.
I need to settle to create at least one eye near the wall.

I am considering both o7 and p7 to solidify my position but they also ffeel very passive.

I am considering s3 to settle and put a little pressure on his group. But it feels like it will be gote.

I could try and play p8 but I think my group is too weak to start attacking.

Also after all this corner business he has built up a huge moyo that will be difficult to come back from. But giving up doesnt sound fun at all.

The more thinking this game requires the more I am procrastinating each move. Not good.. Need to start being more diligent.

he is trying to create some eyes, not on my watch im going in for the kill :rambo:,

first im going to hit the vital point, well its more like the area where it will be easiest for him to make eyes, and its a nice one space jump from my stone, so its a natural progression instead of just a shot in the dark, another benefit is it makes q5 so detrimental
