I didn't see this until much later in the game, but\:

Now F3 wins for White.

See next variation for a better alternative, and the 2nd variation on the next move for how White wins.]

Again, I think Black should try to stop H4 from connecting to the K-edge.  However, the ladder along the 1-edge is no longer as good for Black.]

This connects to the A-edge via either D7, or a ladder escape fork at C3.

Peter\: It also connects to the K-edge via j2 or i4.]

Black should try to stop H4 from connecting to the K-edge.

If White defends along the 1-edge, then there are two ways Black might try to handle that ladder.]

i9 is not aiming for enough in this corner.  Black should play here instead, since bridges into the corner still result in Black connecting.]
