Post subject:  Huge large avalanche variation and huge centre territory

Here's a game I played on OGS which had a very interesting and long variation of the large avalanche joseki which led to a big territory and big influence, and soon after that influence became a huge centre territory, rather too big and easily I thought. Thoughts appreciated, particularly on moves 52 and 58.

Why did you play on the squares instead of the intersections?

;)

Edit: It seems that I had my zoom set too far out. :lol:

FWIW, through :b57: I think that White has gained a few points. :)

For :w58: I like Q-10. The opponent's play is my play. ;)

For :w60: I have a decided preference for Q-10. Why push Black towards his weakness, the top side and corner?

I wonder what Robert Jasiek's joseki evaluation thingy would say... I also felt it was a bit better for white, but only if I was pro-level at dealing with big influencey moyos.

I thought if I pushed up black might push down at r11: if white hanes at the head of 2 I feared black could cut with that big wall and the fight would be good for him, though to be honest I didn't read anything past that. If extend then black probably jumps to keep the moyo and then approach/extend and aim to 3-3 on top right or something more to the top side? I added a variation to the sgf (dynamically loaded from OGS).
