@yebellz @Feijoa It seems blue G5 and green G3 is a simple way to ruin the eye space of green-black. And this will probably force some of them to spend a move connecting G3 (I think it’s too good for us if this group is cut off). The disadvantage is, of course, now they know what we are doing. You want to do that?

Okay, if anyone asks where I’m playing, I’ll say G3. Hope that makes it clear.
Not sure what that means actually 
@yebellz
I want to add that G5,G3 isn’t the only viable plan. If you prefer something else we can discuss.

What would you like to try?
I think G3 and G5 connects those stones as White, but does not prevent the stones from being captured as a cutoff pink chain.

That’s true. But they need to waste a few moves to capture those two stones and when they capture that’s not an eye.
So after we connect they probably won’t try to capture. The benefit is almost 0

Getting more and more tempting to kibitz, but I have to be strong 
Also I love the mixture of colours in the lower left

It’s looking very good for us in the lower-left now.
I have a fun move to try near the center but am not sure whether to use it to distract Blue-Black from the left or just quietly do it while that fight goes on. Any preference @yebellz?

I feel like we are approaching endgame, although it could still take a while if many stones get captured. I can’t wait to find out

I think we should threaten to play M2 and threaten to capture the three white stones at E11, F11 and F10.
Any other ideas?

Might need more help later to kill the black-green dragon. Please take this into consideration when planning for your moves. If you want to help this round, blue can play M2 and green H2 (or some other moves you think are good).
If I calculate correctly, this group is dead indeed, but the problem is efficiency. If we are unlucky, we have to invest more stones and/or disclose our moves in some round(s) in the future. Good thing is currently we are in advantage, in terms of efficiency. Recently they have played more local moves in this area than us.

I’d like to add that it’s not urgent or necessary to help in this round. Just mention these moves to avoid collision in case you want to play in this area.
Well, I’m not sure what to do so I’ll harass the Blue-Black stones on the left and try to save those white ones.
