Committed now. There's big aji in the corner. but after H3 I had no easy way of developing it, so things like the E3 peep prevent it from being a large corner already. As a result, I'm assuming he doesn't have any outright killing sequences, and making a group in the middle that could be used to reduced potential White frameworks on either side.
Is it overplay? No idea. One thing was for sure, I couldn't let White simply carry on making the walls to his moyo, and I didn't like either of:

So, I figure, if the middle's the important bit, let's dangle the bait in front of magicwand, and hope to draw him into a fight that I feel can't be favourable for White as he doesn't have enough friends near by.

i am not going to say i am going to win...but i feel much more comfortable that i have a chance to finish my opponent. some two stone game you are playing catchup till finish and dont get to have a chance to win. Lower left corner is next because i dont want him to cover his weakness in sente..

below is my expectation. black may win by playing such game but it is nothing like flow of water i described on other thread. my opponent's play goes against the flow and forcing the issues. i blame all to his low pincer. knowing my influence growing on everymove he should have played it high to stop my influence

to explain my thought process.. below was my first thought and didnt like it because of my weakess on the influence. influence with weakness can not profit points.. although it is a gote i made sure it is strong enough to convert into points.

You clearly misspoke. Did you not mean to say that you are completely winning and that your opponent is soon going to resign? A strange typographical error on your part.

Boo, hiss, I'd missed this. I thought the annoying aji was E3, but this is much more annoying. I have to be very careful about the right way to play this ko, but I simply cannot back down anywhere now.
@Intrepid:
You're quite right, I misjudged the position last move. My lead is clear now, magicwand's corner invasion is desperation, nothing more
