While thinking about it I found a move which looks even more intresting than the keima:

This can become far more complicate than 'a' and is qwuite risky with the strong white group at the bottom. But I feel behind and therefore I guess I have to complicate the game. 'b' was a other move I thought about but I have a hope that a big fight might start which allows me to attack :bc: 'b' seems to calm. Some variations:

If B tries something like this as a calm reduction I'll still try to attack.

White's last move feels a bit overplay-ish, but I can't find a sequence that punishes without putting myself in danger (the J3 and K3 are annoying points). I feel like I'm slightly ahead, so don't want to go too crazy (e.g. M7). I would be happy if I solidify in sente here.

If he plays calm I get more thickness which is exactly what I want. If he cuts I have two options:

I think this fight would be good for me. My stones at the left still help me and his bottom becomes a little bit weaker.

I'm not sure about the exact variation, but the aim here is to prepare an attack at the top group. I'll think more about it when he really cuts.

I want to solidify bottom while leaving some way to go inside later. I end in bad shape when white plays atari, but I feel like the better local result if white plays tenuki is worth it.

Again he denies to fight. However, I think I can satisfie with this because I get thickness where I had nothing while he only makes his already strong bottom stronger. Here are some continuations I thought about:

This looks better because I get a ponnuki but :b2: is in this sequence, too. I'm not sure about this but again, I think :b2: hurts to much. Of course, if he plays :b2: at :w3: I could play at :b2: myself, but I'm unsure whether he would allow it.

I guess I should play again with the proverb, that the good move of your opponent is your good move. This way he can peep at :b2: but I don't think that would hurt very much. Besides he still have the atari at 'a' and if he defends at 'b' 'c' looks good for me.

That wedge potential has been bothering me for a while now, so I'll fix it.

Damn, seems like he sees my attack coming... I think I don't have to block here directly. I get a stronger position into the center but I don't think I have big weaknesses:

I had anticipated a solid connect instead, this makes the area less interesting for me, at the cost of slightly worse edge endgame. Hard to say if it's better, but I do have to be more careful about my one-point jumps group. Nevertheless, I think it's hard to really attack (especially now I have more edge room), so I'll take this big yose instead.

I have to admit, that 'a' was a good spot for me which I missed, which I missed because I concentrated on the bottom. I don't know whether 'a' would be sente (didn't thought about it that much) but it would have been nice and at least I should have thought about it.
However, now it seems to small to play at 'b'. It would make his move even better because he gets sente. Instead I'll play at 'c', which should make much more points than 'b'. If he play at 'b' now, I'll play at 'd'. If he reduces my answer will depend on the move he uses.

First I missed that I have to play :w4: and wanted to play :w4: at :b5: :roll: Would be a typical mistake for me, but luckily I have more time in this game :)


EDIT: Something that just jumped to my mind:

What if I play like this ?

I want to strengthen the group to avoid being attacked (white has some splitting attack potential on that weak group and the left side group). I also want to strengthen the group in order for a deeper reduction of white's N8 area. A side benefit is that I may also get some points if white tries to expand the N8 area.
