Initially, I tried some reduction on the bottom and bottom right side.
After a few tries I noticed that black can use all the weakness of my group in the top right side to build a bigger wall.
So I decided to reduce the up side first to make my group stronger.
On the top part im afraid something like this... and the sequence afterwards (I tried a lot of variations but black could always benefit from it)
Im not afraid to lose the two marked stones.. but I think I cant give up on the whole group.

Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Wc Move 39I play a sente move against the LR corner. A follow up at 2-2 should kill the corner. If he reacts in the LR, then I can go back to block at the top.
If he plays the 1-2 exchange, it would help solidify my UR corner against 3-3 invasion anyway, so I think that's okay. The connection between his stones is also still weak at z.

Needed to keep it alive... I guess. Im getting upset with myself with all the 'i guess' or 'i think'.
At the same time its good so I know things I need to take a look later.

I want to create some aji before trying to do something to the right side.
I think he will fix one of the cuts and leave me with sente.
What If he tenuki? That would be fun.

It's is indeed nice when your opponent punches themselves in the face. But in amateur Go that is rather more common than in boxing.

I know I cant stop an invasion on the left side (e.g.: e). My idea here is see whats his plan is. I want to get sente to do something on the right side or center (a, b, or something else). I think my group on the middle isnt that weak.. since I can try to connect on both sides (e.g: c, d) and, if he blocks both, I think I will have enough space for 2 eyes... or maybe run to the group on top.
