Loons has to choose: (a) empty triangle, (b) possibly ko, or (c) tenuki:

I wonder where Ed will tenuki to. I guess he feels my top yose is small
I am of the opinion this (C7) yose was played too early. It's not like black was going to play reverse-sente here next or even soon, so- why should white play it ? In a timed game, you might play this early while thinking of other moves...
Though, to be fair, I was debating whether I wanted/needed this sequence soon:

Maybe Ed is going to preempt this. What other gote could this be aiming at?

My rough count: (a) ~= (b) ~= 40; (c) ~= (d); (e) ~= (f).
So I have to be careful (g) does not turn into a monster for B, so
(h) seems big...?

If Ed's count is correct, then black is in good shape here. It is hard to see where white is going to get a significant increase in points, whereas black can grab big chunks with 'a' or 'b'.
White's saving grace is that 'b' is modest sente if he plays it.
$$Bc Prisoners: :w2: :b1:

An alternate plan for white might be 'c', threatening 'd', then follow up with 'e'.

If 'b' is indeed sente for white, a hybrid of these two may be possible.

It seems absolutely imperative that white get c in your second diagram, as it is huge sente for black if he gets to play it.
