Black has played from his strongest stones, instead of the weaker ones in the top right. He has not even made any great profit.
Now he will have to defend the upper right with great caution, instead of cruising ahead without worries.

I agree. The last black move was wrong direction. This might be the beginning of the game-turning point if kirby is not careful.

To me, this seems like a difference of philosophy. Cruising ahead is all very good and well. But, given the fact that B approximately 20 pts ahead, he can choose more or less how he wishes to handle the situation.

You know, I don't have that many points. I should be careful not to let him get caught up.
To prevent future catching up, I need to make a presence on the board. I cannot meekly grab territory. I must keep influence on the board.
That's why I'm "jumping" out(?).

I'm actually a bit nervous right now. After the last few exchanges, I think that white has a decent chance of winning if I don't play up to par.
I will try to play "on par", I suppose.
