Indeed, after counting I see that black must do better.

Wow, I'm looking forward to reading all this afterwards :D

Actually, this wasn't as hard a decision as I initially thought it might be. The first thing I had to decide was whether or not I should respond locally here. My last move was definitely sente against the corner - I can kill it now with the monkey jump to S19, and almost certainly other moves too. But if in return white frees his big blob of stones in the centre right, presumably by killing my 2 cutting stones, then that must be bigger than the corner, and I can't allow it to happen. Sadly, I think he can - he does have a shortage of liberties at the moment, but can alleviate that with, amongst other things, the bamboo joint at O11. Admittedly, and despite my earlier comment, I haven't tried to read this in any detail - it's just too hard for me. But I'd be very surprised if my cutting stones could escape, or if I could trap his group and start removing liberties quickly enough. (He also has S9 to obtain more liberties.)

Well, they say that the the point where the opponent wants to play is the point I should play - so that's what I've done. I know my knowledge of basic shapes is pretty poor (probably even more so than my generally low standard of go ;-)), but this really does feel like what people call the "shape point". Basically, P12 and P10 seem to be miai to stop white's northward push, and white can't atari P10 from either side because of his shortage of liberties. Meanwhile it also gives more liberties to my cutting stones, and will help them to connect to other friendly stones (notably the R10 group - which could get into trouble later, but I think I should be OK, especially given the already-much-mention white shortage of liberties). I'm pretty sure this is the right local move, but I won't know until later if the experts above agree with me :lol:

Again, we go back to the basic problem of not seeing/knowing the broken shape (re: Posts 46, 57, 88):

Is this the right move? I honestly have no idea :lol: Indeed, I don't even know for sure if I need to respond locally (although I'm 90% sure I do need to). This move is made in the interests of linking up my stones, either my capturing white's P11 stone, or by playing Q10 (and possibly O10 later). White is still short enough on liberties not to be able to prevent this. More worrying is that white may well extend with P11, and then try to use the aji of R14 to try to live. I think I ought to be able to prevent this from happening, but, as always, it's time to fasten the seatbelts :D

Hmm, more unexpectedness. And, whatever the outcome here, he's certainly resisting harder than I thought possible :sad:

I don't have time now for deep analysis, or a long comment - but in the little time I've had to look at this position, this move has appeared almost completely forced. O10 is the only other move I haven't been able to more or less instantly refute, but that feels less solid than this one on several grounds. I have little worry for my own stones any more, but the question is whether white has created enough aji to be able to live. I hope not, and would still guess not, but right now I wouldn't feel able to bet very much on it...

White quite plainly still doesn't have space for 2 eyes for his group (8 stones on the second line are necessary, and white can only get 6 even if he plays a in sente. My two stones at R7 and R9 also provide help in falsifying a potential eye if necessary). Note that the atari at b is met by a counter atari at c, so this doesn't help white either.
