Comment[Slack. White tries to simplify things, but this move wastes a stone and allows black to make something of his ruined position here.]

Comment[White blunders again, thinking black will answer this, but it's only an 8 point threat, while black stands to gain a double ponnuki.]

Comment[White lives. Inspite of his territorial advantage at the top, white may be in for a tough game, since black has sente to pressure the marked stones, and dominates the lower half of the board.]
