;B[ic]BL[1781.876]C[sholvar: aren't these players annoying who just move the area of your opening around to confuse you? I don't think this kind of thing can help you getting stronger. Of course it might win some games through a little more uncomfortable opponents. But not really that, because actually 60% of the games on 5k-3k look like this. :-(

;B[bp]BL[1759.777]C[sholvar: Yeah, this invasion with an open side I didn't do often the last days so I just instinctively played here instead of stretching.

;B[dh]BL[1745.85]LB[ep:B][fp:C][fr:A]C[sholvar: Of course that he closes the corner in at A might be an option for him. Feels quite slow, though. Especially because around BC is still a cut.
In other words my move here increases my moyo and thus might be the be a lot bigger than anything in the bottom left. At least my feeling says so.

;B[dr]BL[1735.997]
;W[fi]WL[1713.371]LB[ed:A][qn:C][kq:B][nq:D]C[sholvar: now there are 3 open sides (A,B,C). I just decide for the biggest one. I am not so sure though because the continuation in the game (the most expected way of playing, I guess) still gives black no base. Actually because of F2 the base is even more fragile then it would be normally in this kind of situation. So now I think that maybe I should better consider to play D or C. I am very unsure about it.
A seems way too small at the moment. There are already a lot of black stones pointing in that direction.

Just responding to whites move is not nessesary. So I think what is the biggest area.
In the game I played A to not give the played move a meaning.
I think now that B is probably the biggest possible area because it is the most free area and also it can freely choose to attack the right side or the corner. Even though A might become a good move for white now, I should play B. He spent already 3 moves to get a happy A. Should he take it. I spent one move at B and make him around the same troubles he can make with A.

-----------------------]
;B[nc]BL[1707.784]
;W[rd]WL[1644.176]LB[qh:A][qm:B]C[sholvar: R17 is possible and really what he should play here I think. S16 can not be used efficiently. His weaknesses still remain.
Black is happy. M17, S16 is not a good combination.

(;B[le]BL[1680.508]C[sholvar: I discarded answering in the corner, because killing M17 is a lot bigger then anything in that crowded corner.
I wonder if I should have played L16 though.
----------------------------------]
;W[jd]WL[1622.349]C[sholvar: A very nice answer from white I think. Lightweight, hard to attack, but at the same time running and threatining J17. I like this response. Well, see variations.

;B[qb]BL[1648.812]LB[hf:A]C[sholvar: now attacking is not possible so easily. So I don't want to get killed. I didn't consider cutting whites 2 weak groups at all in the game. It also might be a nice thing.
-------------------------------]
;W[lg]WL[1596.802]LB[hf:A]C[A looks so much bigger.]
;B[ng]BL[1643.099]C[sholvar: although I also didn't see it....

;W[ph]WL[1582.423]
;B[qq]BL[1634.367]LB[kq:A]C[sholvar: To not lying to myself I must say that I didn't invade the corner, because it is so smart, but because I know the corner group wouldn't die, while invading outside would have some troubles to not kill the A group.
Even if you agree that this might be the best move, I feel not good for the reason I played here. :-(

White has so many ways to get way ahead now.

I didn't even think he would consider not taking the bribe. Now not thinking about the corner and and making a group on the left side might still be smarter cause it weakens A group a lot.
