He has more threats than me. In fact, I'm not sure I have a threat he would respond to after this. I'm just going to take this ko. My group is then safe, so I can move on to bigger things.

Can I live in the top left?


Second thought that came to mind:
Maybe, maybe not. But is that the biggest area on the board?


Third thought that came to mind:
