It's your move then! ;)

I was disappointed to see this go on hiatus, but family emergencies happen, so it is very understandable. I hope everything has been worked out for you now, 1986!

but thats not the important side because i can easily sacrifice those corner stones, and this is a good move because it must be responded to or else i can atari and gain alot of points in the corner.

so far its not looking so bad, its good to be back in the game with a sound mind and a clear head, im happy again :D lets play some GO!

Black's last two moves look like wastes of ko threats. For his planned variation of cutting at O14, white may not connect O15 but instead play P14.

I made an error in my last comment - if black plays O14 white should O15, otherwise black Q15 is sente (not to mention other aji at R14) XD
