Going this side instead of at the cut, as this way I might destroy a point or so and he has to connect, so it is sente.

What ugly shape I have here. :D Oh well. Can't lose these (heavy?) stones now ...


EDIT:
MY play at G11 seems to have been a mistake. I should have made the solid connection at G12. The G10 stone is an unimportant stone now, so saving it wasn't really the best plan. Playing G11 gave him some good forcing moves against my group, making me heavy.

A quick count puts me up by about 10 points, I think.

I'm not very good at calculating endgame values. My current move is only 1 point in sente but sets up another single point sente move at E9, but I probably won't play E9 immediately if I can find a bigger play. My opponent would have to take gote to play E9 (for a single point), so he likely won't play it immediately either.

There are a few places left to play after this:

I have no idea where to play for :b77: ... c and f feel more urgent than a, b, d or e.

a - While I don't need to respond to this if White plays it, White gains a chunk if I don't.
b - It's sente for White, but not a big gain. I'll probably leave this for white to play.
c - Playing this before white can play A5 feels huge to me. Maybe it's not as big as it feels?
d - It's gote for both of us here.
e - Again gote, but I have to be careful of the O16 cut. I don't think there's anything to worry about, but I'll keep an eye there.
f - I find this area hard to evaluate for endgame. Feels big enough.

I'll have to decide soon where I want to go.

This was expected, of course. 1-point in sente that he could have taken any time. I expect him to go back to answer :b75: now.
