That seems a bit too loose to me. When white replies with :w74:, 'a' and 'b' are both serious weaknesses, and any white move 'c' is a geta-breaker to make 'b' come alive.

The net effect is that :b73: is then gote for black, and white gets the first big move on the upper side:

Whereas with the more solid :b73:, black leaves the bottom with sente and he gets to be the first to play on the upper side:

No worries Chew, I had been thinking the same thing, not just on this move.

wow... my English fails. But I can't think of a way to word that better.
We don't know who we are; we don't know where we are.
Each of us woke up one moment and here we were in the darkness.
We're nameless things with no memory; no knowledge of what went before,
No understanding of what is now, no knowledge of what will be.

Could you please remove the "ACTUAL GAME" label when posting variations of your own?
A good system naturally covers all corner cases without further effort.

Now that B has provoked W to defend at G2, the aji of a cut at "a" is serious. For example, W can probably play the following in sente. If B does not defend, the W cut captures a stone and takes control of the center. So for W to atari the other way (W1 at H6) is aji-keshi and loses sente. I think W will play something like this, then take the large point "b" on top.

I disagree with virtually all of the analysis posted so far about the latest move. Black's play at F18 is making a fist. I predict that white will do somehing to strengthen his center group.

The sequence above is gote AND aji-keshi. If white is willing to play gote, M3 is gote and is way bigger.

Both the 1-2 exchange and the 3-4 exchange are aji-keshi. And if white does tenuki next, he plays up top around M3, which is way more urgent than 'b'.
