GoatCheese [3k\]: what is the biggest point right now
GiantCat [-\]: lower left is in danger, that seems urgent
]
;B[bp]C[calgacus [1d?\]: however b's corner has some weakness
calgacus [1d?\]: b5 becomes a good forcing move
calgacus [1d?\]: b7 is shape, s2 aggressive
calgacus [1d?\]: sorry j2
GoatCheese [3k\]: ah
GoatCheese [3k\]: w looks in danger of the d7 cut.
GoatCheese [3k\]: is that not an issue?
calgacus [1d?\]: yes, j2 aims at h2, vut i rhink w will play on left
MrShintou [-\]: white has one eye already

GoatCheese [3k\]: mr shintou
MrShintou [-\]: white has 2 eyes, if he plays c7 
cliftut [14k?\]: What if C8?
MrShintou [-\]: e1 eye and g4 eye
GoatCheese [3k\]: how is e1 and eye?
Mjolner [3k\]: e1 not an eye g4 not ean eye...
MrShintou [-\]: because if he moves C7, d1 is sente.
cliftut [14k?\]: B4 was to guarantee life?
GoatCheese [3k\]: i see what you are seeing
calgacus [1d?\]: d1 threatens b1. w has g3 and h4 anytime
MrShintou [-\]: if h8 then g3 h2 h4 j4 h5 eye, and 2nd eye is d1 f1 b1 c1 b2 c3 a4 b dies.

Ijime [4k\]: what bluff?
svgo [3k\]: interesting play--almost like he's asking for q10--but why?
Ijime [4k\]: it's for breaking the ladder no?
svgo [3k\]: ah
Ijime [4k\]: plus some other purpose i guess
svgo [3k\]: getting out the the ladder doesn't necessarily seal the middle though, and losing the right side group is big
