Black:
Strengths:
- Three almost certainly secure groups in the upper left, upper right, and lower right.
- In the lower left there are only Black stones thus far, but that’s only a minimal advantage because that area is still so open.
Weaknesses:
- The three B39, 45 stones are almost certainly “captured”.
- Although the three B11 - 21 stones have excellent shape and center access, they are still unsettled.
- The three B25-51 stones are also somewhat weak, and that’s compounded by their proximity to the B11-21 stones. This gives White the potential for driving them toward each other, and then setting up a potentially devastating splitting attack.
Opportunities:
- Black’s only really significant attack potential exists against the W30 - 52 group. - There is also some limited potential for an attack against the W10 - 22 upper right stones, whose shape is still incomplete.
- There is a significant territorial potential on the left side, where there are only Black stones at the moment.
Threats:
- The 3 B25 -51 stones are still insecure.
- So are the 3 B11 -21 stones, albeit to a somewhat lesser degree.
