The question before this move was whether I could convince myself to resign, and I can't quite do it. There are no lines that are favorable for me, but I think there are some complicated ones, and I can't prove to my satisfaction that they're all dead-ends for White--the branching factor is really high, given my reading skills. So I'll continue to play a few moves, and analyze as I go.

It does look just a little seki-ish. Too hard for white though, maybe.

I still can't get my reading organized. There are just too many lines, and too many duplicates. Whether I should atari here or hold it in reserve is not at all obvious to me.

The decision point for me.
I'm counting on this continuation.

After there is a choice between and b. Although the second secures right cutting group and my bottom center group, I'm afraid that white a is fatal for the left cutting group and/or the top left corner. So I'll try to reinforce the left hoping that I can withstand the attack on the right side.
