I feel bad about my move that fixed his weakness... The influence that I am building is useless and this pushing fixes his weakness. A very bad exchange!

Ok so any sane man would F13 here but since i'm not sane thats not what i'm going to play.
I'm going to lurk him into a fight for the center. I have to be very carefull about my own groups when he cuts me here though.
My plan is to create chaos and running groups in the center if he should cut me.
I think its not an overplay but a very difficult situation I'm creating... I love difficult games

For beginners. The hane is asking for trouble: if B has completely read out that it works, great.
Otherwise, B is creating a mess unnecessarily for himself (helping W by giving W opportunities).
Simply extending with is already so much profit for B:

Okay, so I still can't tenuki from this or my group will be surrounded, which is the worst thing that can happen apart from death, because it will give my opponent many many forcing moves on the outside.

A is an interesting cut, B is submissive but safe and C is the shape point.

I disregarded B because it is just to submissive, and I disregarded C for the following reason:

After 19 I have no good protection against the follow-up at A.

Two other arguments for A are these; 11 and 15 have a shortage of liberties, while any ladder to the lower right would be in my favour.

If I were black, the safe move would have been to play A myself, instead of 17. If this would happen, I would certainly play at C and black would gain sente to play somewhere else

I'm going to simplify because I read a mistake in my original plan. No more rambo brute force style

Yes there is a new plan. Only it depends a bit on what he does next, so lets see what white does.

Time to split the bottom. I'm fairly known with the orthodox fuseki so I think it is the right spot in this case.
If I would have played modern by aproaching the hoshi from within then he would have pincered and created a nice framework.

For beginners. Instead of , capturing with was the only move for W:

Could you re-number the above variation (including the marked stones), starting with a move 1, instead of a ?

I know that invading the three space extension is also a real option in this situation, but I don't want to settle things just yet. If white solidifies his three space extension, I'll approach in the top right, if he does not, I will invade it next turn.

So I'm just going to start writing this and maybe by writing this is will come up with a move because I'm a bit clueless :p

There is so much unsettled problematic possitions on this board that I don't know what to do first. Probably my next move is going to be a mistake so stronger players please comment on what I should have chosen here.

So there is still aji in the cutting stone, it's dangerous for white. Howhever if I just try to pick a fight it will get me influence on the bottom which I don't think I need. I want to use it for building a wall on the right side. I have to read to see how I can do that.

Ok so we have my 3 space extension which for some reason he did not invade. My guess is that he wants to invade it without me having a sente move on the corner. So I kindoff have to protect this group. Howhever I NEED sente in order to build my wall i desprately need

Ok I think I have a strategy howhever it will be very hard. I will build my wall (or just a bit of influence) by using the aji in the center stones and attacking the center top group. The hard part will be to do this in sente so I can come back to the lower part in order to handle my group. I will stablise the group by jumping one point on the left side of my extension so i can invade the lower left later unless he protects... Lets see what really happens and if I can find a way to do all of this in sente

Although these two stones give him thickness in the corner (no more cut aji at E15 and 16), it is gote and I just want to invade his 3-space on the bottom. =]

He wants sente for some reason and its not to protect his group on the top so lets see why.

I will invade his three space extension now. I think he either has to connect over top or on the bottom, and both choices leave him eyeless and semi-weak. Either I will build up influence to use to create a moyo on the bottom, or I'll get some territory.
