still, though in the game I felt uncomfortable letting W take sente here, in hindsight, I think I am very happy with the overall position, as now the B13 attachment is light and not such a big deal]

the L3 stone is very small in comparison as it is right next to the W wall (especially with H2 and J2 half sente)]

I'm still not clear about this move. Is it more important to make shape and start to connect back now or to reduce the centre immediately?
