Eduardo [2k\]: g15 looks better, i think
Tabemasu [2d?\]: h14 is not a good shape in this case, because if white plays g15 black will have to h16
Tabemasu [2d?\]: and b will end up with one more cut

Eduardo [2k\]: l16
hallelujah [?\]: well g15 also has problems
hallelujah [?\]: so...
royu [5d\]: b has to shore up weaknesses vs. W e13

royu [5d\]: surprising move
Tabemasu [2d?\]: it seems so slow

]
;W[ek]C[royu [5d\]: maybe ~12pt group + whatever value of chasing white group before trying to save it
ChoUsRival [-\]: why is this turning out like this @_@
royu [5d\]: feels as if a tenuki to r14 or e9 had more value

royu [5d\]: it's interesting because the weird shapes of one side are kinda mirroed by other

Mitani92 [3d\]: anything wrong with playing j12?
