Thanks for the well-wishes guys, I've healed up since yesterday but now, as a consequence of missing classes, I have to catch up on my schoolwork and will be imprisoned in the library for a while to do so. I'll make my move either late tonight or tomorrow morning, sorry for the inconvenience everybody.

I must confess, that when I played my last move I didn't consider :w6: in the slightest. I think I cared a bit too much for what was once two stones; I know time and time again top pros and amateurs who have critiqued my play have said numerous times that a problem I had was being too greedy, and I feel like the last 10 moves reflected that.

Nonetheless I'll have to make best with what I've got. It is unreasonable for me to try and kill the three White stones as my four stones are in more danger than his three (they have an emergency parachute on the first line). I'm not necessarily going to try and save the four stones, but simply to alleviate the situation here (ideally, in sente) as best as I can.

Ok, :b1: does set up a snapback at 'a', but 'b' is sente to kill the corner, so white seems to have enough liberties that he need not worry about it.
This leaves white with more good moves than he needs. After the natural :w2:, 'c' is a successful ladder, 'd' connects underneath, 'e' splits, and 'f' encircles everything.

I think that Sol is in too deep to back out now, and I predict that this game is over within 20 moves.

i am trying to find a play that is safest.
i could play stronger but there is no guarantee that will work.
i dont have anything against him making life as long as i get sente and enough influence out of it.
this is my style of play.

Not much to think about here, capturing the stone resolves the situation here for both sides. I'm still not necessarily guaranteed alive, but I'm certainly a lot more living than I was a few moves ago.

i thought about this game for a while.
this is the chance i have been waiting for and i will make sure to break his back here.
my initial move was not strong enough.
he has only two choices below.
if i take that aji-keshi stone he played earlier it will eliminate his hanne at "a"
and he will still be cycloped.
i personally dont think he can make a life with such shape.

The biggest decision for me was whether to capture or play 'a'. I ultimately chose to capture because I'd rather not let him get 'b' for free. Also the shape is more resilient, even if he himself can play 'a'. In that case the ko wouldn't be a big burden since the group is flexible enough. There is still some leftover aji in :bc: , such as getting to play 'c' in the future. While I feel my group in the middle is pretty safe, his group is also pretty as well since has the emergency parachute at 'd' any time.

It's an important 'shape move'. I feel like I'm trolling some of the lower-leveled players who may be reading this and asking what exactly I mean when I say something is a 'shape move'. The best way I can say it is that the move ensures the resilience of my group; it's much easier to see if you picture W playing there.

i will think about answer to this for a while
my first instinct answer is easy.
but i want to understand why he played this move first.
i can not figure why he played that move yet.
i think i have to think and think.
after while if i can not figure out then i will play my first instinct.

If Araban plays this way it seems fine, and if he respond to the peep then it seems like a good exchange.
