ok everything is going according to plan, i got a nice lead and i plan to keep it, 

when i look at the board im feeling great!, 
i got 3 1/2 corners, and access to the center, i got options everywhere

time to tighten up and stay focused :rambo:

I make robinz about 10 points ahead if he sees it, and about 25 points behind if he doesn't. Both leads should be largely unassailable with what's left of the game, so :b93: could be a really game deciding move.

Here if i understand correctly W should have ignored and proceed with the ko
i must say i would not do much better i think this is really hard :blackeye:
I agree that this has been a great game. Both players are to be congratulated, and thanked for entertaining us so well! :tmbup:

Personally, I'd still try a 3-3 invasion as black... It feels just big enough to still be able to live. After the bottom-left is settled:

There's still a ko, but I don't see any good ko threats for white.
We don't know who we are; we don't know where we are.
Each of us woke up one moment and here we were in the darkness.
We're nameless things with no memory; no knowledge of what went before,
No understanding of what is now, no knowledge of what will be.

Chew: I added to the diagram. Basically, white can kill those three stones, but black will have miai 'a' to live after 10... I think.
Someday I want to be strong enough to earn KGS[-].

I so can't wait to read all these posts once the game is over - although it'll probably take me months to digest them :lol:

As already discussed. My current opinion is that this seems to even work, although I'm far from certain that I've not missed something. But, as it's clearly sente, if it doesn't then it's no worse than a lost ko threat, so there's no way I'm not playing it.

That makes it twice in this game that I've made a move at the 1-2 point to give myself more effective liberties in a capturing race (move 163 was the other time) - I wonder if this is a common technique, as I've not really come across it (although I do know there is a proverb that "strange things happen at the 1-2 point"). Of course, it could be that these moves simply don't work ;-)
