although it is very complicated yet..i think white is ahead comfortably.

A quick count shows that black has about 60 to 65 points. We've got 10 to 15. So they are about 50 points ahead. Adjust that by the prisoner count, and they are 45 ahead.

If we let black live in the lower middle, it will be right next to all of the areas that we would need to make 45 points:

Furthermore, the corner that younger brother wants to hold on to is not that big. Black can invade with 'a', costing us about 7 points, and finish in sente.

So, I think it is better strategy to push black's invaders into the already compromised corner, and keep them away from the bigger areas.

Thus...

I disaprove.

I'll have to think a bit to decide exactly where I do want to play.

Wow, that's a good move, isn't it? It looks odd to me*, but seems effective. Well, I can't read out what's going to happen, but it seems dumb to tenuki (establishing a thick connection into the center would be big, but living here is bigger), so: contact -> hane.

I suspect this is what will happen next:

I think this overconcentrates them. Their walls are 4-5 points apart, rather than getting "par" at 6.

The cut seems good for us... we don't get any of the corner, but we can make a huge living group.

((This is just because I'm stupid. It's the same principle as a kick, just from above instead of the side.))

Live on the side. Aji in the corner.

I chose the first alternative. I think in a normal game I would have gone with the second one, but I'm not certain that it will live in the middle of all that white stuff. Plus, the original 2nd line move we made was meant to force white to take a decent sized corner so we could live on the side. When white attaches on top like that, white's offering a larger than normal corner (I think), so I don't feel too bad taking white up on the offer. We should still be able to reduce, I think.

I don't like jts's move:

The marked black stone is Violence's move.

I approve.

I'm in complete agreement with Terr that the bottom side and middle look bigger than the corner. Unfortunately, I also agree that this move is thin.
I don't like it either way.

Surely our current shape cannot be what Shapenaji was thinking of. I already have suggested the pressing move of O3, and he moved it to P3. If he were intending for us to play N3, he would have left O3 alone.

Another way of saying that is that this:

...is way better than this:

The only conclusion that I can come to is that Shapenaji intends this:

But that leads to this:

...which doesn't look good for us either.

So, finding myself in a position of being totally unable to contribute, I'll pass this one on up to Shapenaji and let him handle it. My approval here is not really approving of the situation, but just a way of passing it on. :sad:
