dont mind too much... it is a drunk man talking nonsenses.
sofar i can see that you are very solid player.. i am trying my best to shake your moves but you have been playing solid... i dont think i can beat you in 4 stones. but if you lose this game...i dont mind tyring.
i am still confident that i will win this game because... professionals have hard time beating me 3 stones ...but they usually. do. but. 4 stones they dont have much chance. my point is that... 3 stones are not too hard. another workds.. i will win this game.

Thanks for the kind words.
Of course, you'll have to forgive me for still thinking I can and will win this one!

Just going with my original plan. I believe one more move around R9 or 10 gives black a frightening amount of territory. I have to milk this weak dragon for all it's worth...
As for that corner, he can choose to fight a ko when I try to activate that aji. I think I should be able to find a lot of threats, though.

Black's next move will be interesting. Will he attack directly? Will he lean against the White stone in the top right? Will he go for territory on the right side?

Hm, I don't have as much aji in the top left as I thought-- white can choose to fight a ko and I think I'm short on threats. It doesn't matter, my right side is too big.

I feel the same as you, but it works for him. I wonder what would pro say about this kind of move.

Bah, that doesn't scare me. Obviously this is the only move. With the K11 stones I'm practically alive in the center and the lower right corner is not going to die.
If he tries to live in there right now he probably can do so in gote-- in compensation I still get half of the moyo and I get to attempt to punish his tenuki.
If I get a move around r10 he probably can't live in there at all.
If I convert the entire moyo to points I think I win by twenty or so.
EDIT:
This is the sort of move Magicwand started playing against Violence when he was behind. As long as I don't fall for any tricks I should win this.

these probes are very important.. he might not block later.. but now he is forced to block and leave aji.

Magicwand is still just trying to make aji for his eventual invasion. Given the format, I believe I can read nearly as well as he can (just takes me 10x as long), so I'm unlikely to screw up too badly. At this stage in the game when I was playing vs. the 7 dans over the weekend (at 4 stones, yes I know-- not enough) I would already be in very serious trouble. My point is we've left the stage of the game when I seem to make the majority of my horrible game losing moves. (famous last words)
Only other move to consider is this, which gives him way too much on top despite solidifying my side:

Good thing I noticed this, almost didn't. I think I still would have played my last move even if I'd seen this... (And here I went on about how mistakes were less likely from me now blah blah )
