My other choice was to just sanrensei at the top, which he would obviously ignore. He may very well ignore this too, in which case I'll cut and try to control the flow of the game. At the same time, I wonder if I should have just taken the big move.

But after I capture here I'm more than happy to just get some free moves. Lets see what happens.

my goal is to break him on this ko fight. i think this is legit ko threat. if he refuse to answer then i earn more points and ko fight will be even bigger than before which i dont mind.
one lesson sdk can learn from this game is to ko fight. i will not use any ko threats that will make me lose points. (example below: point "a") i dont think i will play that ko threat unless i really need ko threat.

I'm not quite sure how to think of this yet. My bad for somehow not consciously thinking about this earlier

these ko threats i can ignore.. but i think i can fight without giving him anything. also ko threats he is using is tempting because of the reason it is a bad ko threats on black.. now i have a beautiful hanne shape on black group.
lesson for SDKs: if you wanna get stronger learn how to ko fight. how? 1. most important UNDERSTNAD THE BURDON ON EACH PLAYERS 2. learn how to count the ko threats and correctly sequence them. 3. try not to play ko threats that hurts you.
below is the sequence i am hoping for. i think i am pushing the limit also.. but this is how i play handycapped game. i hope i can get some unhidden feedback from observers. just say how you are enjoying my comments and game or just say hi..
