Like below? Then either a or b for black and correspondingly c or d for me?
$$Bm53
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Bm53I was really torn between playing the move I chose and a above. a seems to me the shape point, but leaves Ed's options unnecesarily open IMHO. Chosen move seems to be more straigthforward, and good enough.
Btw - I'm not primarily trying to wall of the whole top from 54 and 56 upwards. That seems futile with the sides as open as they are. Instead I'm first of all aiming at flattening right side, which seems sufficient as long as nothing big forms in center. Of course, if I get sente from my flattening operation, around f seems nice at a glance.
Not sure at all about the above assessment of situation, would be nice to read some opinions on it after the game.

If 59 below, I'll play 60, unless I find something even better
. 60 threatens a or so, and if Ed defends against that, b is sente against corner, which in my reading ensures I will waltz out by playing c.

Another move I did not think of before Ed played it. Nice, it enables black to cut my two stones with 3 below because 5 is atari. However, a after 9 seems ok?
$$Bm1
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Bm1Playing like below feels so bad I could not stand it, had to find something else: Black centre group is very solid, and I did not gain much.

10mm ING stones from Yutopian arrived today
(Ordered on Sunday Jan 20, 2013; request: please don't send me the ING bowls, and they didn't.

Just realized that 4 below is a possible variation of my earlier post. The squeeze is too bad for me.
Game situation seems ok still, good that I caught this one.
