I think that it's time to connect this group now. Playing with the contact stone he just made gives him many forcing moves, and could make my group here potentially dangerous. I don't seal him in this way, but I can still escape with my center group.
Even I, being several stones weaker, was instantly feeling that this move is MUCH too defensive when I saw it. Magicwand is desparately - so it feels to me - trying to break through Kirby's enclosure and he is just backing off and letting him have that. There must be some better move which is defending his group and simultaneously threatening something to Magicwand as well. But Kirby did not mention any other moves that he considered. Did he play this too fast? I could very well understand that, I am having trouble with the patience needed for turn-based-games as well. Or is it a general weakness of him, letting the opponent have what he wants without making sure that he gets some compensation?

Well, he is attacking my stones, and I need some sort of safety. There's also my center group to consider, which is not that strong, either.
I don't want him to get a position on the top, so I considered this:
$$Bcm1 Prisoners: W=0, B=0

but white can make things hard for me with a move like "a". I also considered playing at "b", but that doesn't allow for me to play under at "c" very well.
I think I need to strengthen my group. I don't want him to get a good position on the side, but I have to keep my group safe.

I thought for awhile about cutting. But it is too aggressive. I don't have a good response to this (that I could think of):
$$Bcm1 Prisoners: W=0, B=0

However, this move works fine. I threaten to take his stone, which would clearly make my group perfectly safe. If he saves his stone, I can cut him off with:
$$Bcm1 Prisoners: W=0, B=0

or
$$Bcm1 Prisoners: W=0, B=0

Either way, is group is not totally strong, and I can use that to help my center group.
