This move is probably completely ridiculous. But I sort of like it. My goal is to keep white's group in the upper left small - I know I can't kill it, but that's OK.

I'm guessing he hasn't seen this?

i had to look over and over to see if i missed something..
his move was really unexpected and wrong.

Well, I had read this out, but somehow I got distracted and thought the previous move would force W to live on the side. Not going to happen. Now the question is, how much of the upper left and top can I get? And how about the left side? We'll see.

this picture looks too good for me. i am curious what he is thinking now??

Brutal for black right now...

I probably can't live in the corner here. But if I can...then this will be very nice.

i can not miss this atari if he doesnt answer and save two stones then he will lose more.

that corner is BIG

I don't see much point in playing in the upper left any more. The bottom is big. So is the right, but the bottom feels more urgent to me.

nothing fancy...just maintain my lead

If white gets one more move on the right, then there won't e anything I can do there at all. It's my last chance, I've got to take it. This move seems like good shape; I considered a more aggressive move playing on the third line around R9 or something, ut if I do that then magicwand can chase me all over the place and he will probably get sente out of it. With this move, his options are more limited.

only one move possible that i see

I'll push along here as long as I'm sure it is sente. Then I'll tenuki. I'm thinking the lower left would be good; if I can put pressure on D9 and strengthen the bottom side at the same time, that would be good. I also may be able to annoy L11 at some point, but I don't think I'm quite ready for that yet. We'll see how other things go, maybe some day I can make points by harassing that group.

usually what is playing is a good move...but in this game he gave me too much points in the beginning. also any points he expect from the center is pretty much gone because of solid shape i have in the middle. i will just take whatever point he gives me and finish this game with 10 point win and avoid all complication

Magicwand might tenuki now. It would be risky for him I think but there are enough big points elsewhere that he may do it. I'd like to tenuki myself but leaving just two stones there is too uncomfortable, I need to add a third before they are stable.
