I've gotten this far, but I can't ever seem to finish a very hard puzzle without hints. What tricks do I need to find the next big number?
. . 2 | . . . | 4 8 .
. . 8 | 2 4 . | 1 . .
. . . | . 7 . | . . 2
------+-----+------
2 . . | 9 8 . | . 4 1
1 . . | 4 2 . | . . 9
4 . . | 1 5 7 | . . .
------+-----+------
5 . . | 7 6 . | . . 8
. . 2| 5 . 4 | 3 . .
. 1 7| . . . | . 5 4
I've gone thru and done pencil marks and found pairs like 3,6 in the middle square, and 3,4 in the 7th row columns 2 and 3.
What's next?
