OK, that's funny. Shaddy actually played this before C14, and both of us forgot. Sorry for the confusion!

It seemed like a gain to my kyu brain.

exchange feels good to me; for one thing, White's doesn't get to perform that sort of springing-off-the-wall double-keima maneuver of playing at
a (although maybe the move is still playable). Corrections welcome!

Black pushes again, white jumps?
Someday I want to be strong enough to earn KGS[-].

Despite being only a double digit kyu I'll at least try to understand the moves and make a very rough guess at what will happen next. I hope I don't say something stupid:
The move I would probably make without thinking is G14, but I understand it's a very bad move for white because of this, right?
$$Bcm27
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Bcm27So maybe this would be good for white? Black's three top left stones look dead to me...
$$Bcm27

$$Bcm27 Black 27
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$Bcm27 Black 27g14 is correct. As to how urgent it is... maybe it's not as urgent as i'd thought it. D10 is probably as good if not better for white.

Does black try to separate with G15?
