I still don't understand G12. From where I sit, it did magicwand no good at all; it was aji keshi at best. Well, here's what I see for the next few moves:

So far so good. From here I can play K15 or L15; not sure which is better. K15 lets black play M14 and cut, but I get two eyes. L15 is the better move if it works...but it's tricky, I'll read that out when we get there. Oh, and J11 will work if the other two don't.

Now I see, does he save his stones, or threaten my stones in the upper right? I can drop some of them if I grab F13. Of course if they all go, I'm in trouble. We'll see.

I had the same thought without the squeeze. To me, it's just that white can cut.

Not sure if w will fight the ko or not. It'll be a big one if he does, and I think that I have more inside threats than him.

So this can't be magicwand's plan. I looked at several sequences involving G15, but none worked out well for magicwand. Some of them let him kill F16 I think, but always at a cost, like losing L12 or something like that. So maybe he'll just play H9 like in my sequence a move or two back, or maybe he sees something I don't.
