;W[fq]
;B[fm]C[zwin [14k?\]: Anybody have any thoughts on this game?
Lambaste [3k\]: Well I was thinking if white plays b18 he might get a splitting attack going, but black probably has some way to wreck the left side that I've not seen.
zwin [14k?\]: Sounds reasonable
]
;W[im]C[Lambaste [3k\]: Of course a player might tell me that putting pressure on white's bottom group like that is boardering on insanity, so who knows.
Lambaste [3k\]: *stronger player, that is.
zwin [14k?\]: Why would it be insanity?
]
;B[dm]
;W[cm]C[Lambaste [3k\]: Well white's lower group, especially before the j7 stone was added, has quite a bit of aji because of the low position and solidity of O3. 
]
;B[cn]C[zwin [14k?\]: Sorry, but what is aji exaclty?
Lambaste [3k\]: Um, potential for stuff to happen. In this case, potential for black to take away much of white's eyespace, although that threat is reduced somwhat by j7.
zwin [14k?\]: Right I see
]
;W[cl]
;B[do]
;W[bn]
;B[en]C[zwin [14k?\]: So you're saying that it's bad for black to put pressure onn that group because it would make white consider blocking against the o3 group?
zwin [14k?\]: or not blocking exactly, just trying to defend more against it 
Lambaste [3k\]: Well I was actually saying that white might not want to drive the e4 group (when it was still weak) into the lower side of the board, and white would have to patch up his lower position.
Lambaste [3k\]: J7 is probably the correct direction of play.

zwin [14k?\]: I got ya
zwin [14k?\]: thanks
