Alright here we go. If white tries to kill me, I think I can win.
$$Wcm31

Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Wcm31I think like this I win, so white will probably compromise. I also haven't looked at all the variation. However if white dives the other way, I think he just ends up forcing me against his weak group.

Simply put, I can't afford to connect here. At first I thought that it was ok, but then I realized that if I connect, he can fix his throw in problem by peeping in sente, and thus will get the first move on the bottom, insuring his live and possibly my death.
$$Wcm31
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Wcm31This looks a disaster. As a result, I have to ignore his peep.

Yes, it's cut point city, but I have no choice. More comments after edit.
I would like to atari his one stone, I really would, but then it looks like he can cut me
$$Wcm41
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Wcm41And I don't think I can win the race
Now here's what might happen
$$Wcm41
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Wcm41He doesn't really get many points, and I'm left with some thickness facing the outside, albeit with aji.

This can't be right?? These moves I've been making recently don't necessarily seem right but seem best. So at this point my corner is alive, and I don't think he can dive under my wall thank god.
$$Wcm41
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Wcm41$$Wcm41
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Wcm41I think because of his cuts he has to back down here.
As I result if he just captures I'll have to choose

Sigh, I really wanted to play the atari, but then he kills me:
$$Wcm41
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Wcm41I couldn't find any way to live after this. I briefly considered just letting the group die and moving elsewhere, but it's like 30 points, which is just too much. So if I'm gonna have to play inside, I might as well live the most profitable way, and in the most senteish way possible. I assume he'll tenuki. But I have a nice followup later.
