i made at least two mistakes here: i missed one possible move for black. not the one already played, but the one following. ok, i tried hard and found a solution, slight change in order of moves. but in the process i came to another problem, which would arise even in the original variation...
so i switch to my actual move, but it can get very complicated as i failed to see the semeai coming and even after long reading and analysing i can't say for sure if i will be able to cheat death . (black can also exchange x for y anytime, i don't know how much is it beneficial)

now i can take advantage of black's not typical ogeima extension, as it gives me more space for invasion in the corner. i believe O3 will keep some aji even after that. top should be fine even with black to move first (i am more convinced than yesterday), although it would surely nice to finish the area once and for good. i also considered jump to O5, kosumi N or L4 and defensive M2.

i have to play here in order to live. if i played tenuki, black S5 would kill
if black answers me, i can activate my lone stone. maybe i should not play it immediately. note that after 3 (P1) black might threat my corner, turning it to seki or something:

There is a little bit of risk from the cut. Right now the ladder works for me, but I'm leaving aji for later. But I think it's a fair trade to seal White in a little tighter. Plus the endgame is better for me:

O2 immediately seems too early. it leads to a ko and black has big load of ko threats in the top.
so i chose this move, as my weakness H3 is too much to left behind. plus it could be sente because of my one stone aji (although it would get probably used up) and it pretty much erases the thickness black got after my sansan. if black answer on the right, i will attack him at D8. if he plays on the left, i can activate my stone in much more perferable way than before. i almost played D8 right now, i changed my mind after i already started reasoning why to play D8

actually, when i look at the board and try to estimate score, i stand quite fine, (only by feeling i would say it is not so good). and it is still a long way to go

Well, I think I've already lost my 3-stone lead, so I'm pretty much playing an even game against a much stronger player. I'm not too hopeful about winning this one, but I'm going to play for a little longer anyway.
The aim of this move is to either cut white or reduce, depending on how he responds. Some possible variations:

sorry, i have to think about my move a bit and i don't have enough time now. hopefully around today evening, in worst case tomorrow evening. thank you for you patience
