Duces wild, stakes sky high.
Solution: Skyscraper in 2 eliminates the 2 in R5C3 and solves the puzzle.

It might be boring to some. But for the rest of us, is it your contention that the cell marked with # can _only_ be a '7' because the other two blocks, marked with *, take awy the '1' and '9'?

Here's how I see it:
Take a look at C2 and B7. The 9 in B7 must be in C2, so the cell # is not 9. Then you have the XY-wing 79-17-19. R1C1 cannot be 9. The only possible 9 in R1 is R1C4, which solves the puzzle.

Another way to look at it: | Code: |
*------------------------------------------------------------*
| 167-9 #17 3 |*19 8 2 | 67 5 4 |
| 1269 5 12 | 19 7 4 | 8 69 3 |
|*79 8 4 | 5 3 6 | 1 2 79 |
|--------------------+-------------------+-------------------|
| 127 127 9 | 4 126 5 | 3 168 128 |
| 8 4 12 | 3 1269 19 | 26 7 5 |
| 5 3 6 | 8 12 7 | 4 19 129 |
|--------------------+-------------------+-------------------|
| 12 6 5 | 7 4 3 | 9 18 128 |
| 4 19 7 | 2 19 8 | 5 3 6 |
| 3 129 8 | 6 5 19 | 27 4 127 |

Ema,
You actually have a few more of the "basics" that would make your puzzle a little clearer. The two 9 in block 7 will eliminate the 9 from R1C2. This will make the xy wing in block 1 easier to see.
The 9s in block 6 eliminates the 9 in r6c5 but that doesn't make a difference in solving the puzzle. |
