I don't like this -26 is on an ideal point. W has a lot of territory, and 26 neutralises a lot of my influence. I don't have many ways to vary from this diagram:

This is an alternative, but it alos feels slack for me.

Back to the game, my plan is:

Whie's wall is not particualrly effective here. An alternative plan for W is:

It looks like B can fight reasonably effectively here - the ladder is good for B, and I won't let W capture the cutting stone.

I don't know if this is joseki, but my cut (D4) was a natural move, and the white stone on low side is in a good position.

Seems highly unlikely that this could be joseki, with Black making the broken shape in White, in sente...
but let's double check and find out...

I think Ed is too blindly applying his broken shape detector and it is far from clear this result is good for black; in fact probably I prefer white. Although it is true white has blighted his f3 stones, it is not dead yet, whereas black has completely killed his own 2 stones in the corner, making white totally alive with about 10 points of territory. Black's wall is not alive and could even be a weak group, and there is a cut at e5 to deal with. The key question is how weak is black's wall versus white's k3 stone: if black plays a checking extension at m3 then white can g4 or so which helps k3 and weakens the wall, if black h3 then white is happy to n3. I find it difficult to know how to continue as black.

Yeah, agreed. I'm pretty sure this result favors white and that black D5 was a mistake. Either D4 or E3 would probably have been better, I prefer E3.

I have 2 realistic choices - the move I played and the solid connetction. My move has the bas aji of a cut by W later. However, it does have a follow up:

W needs to protect at 32 or the corner will drop off. So W may be better off with a tenuki fo 30, playing:

For my previous move, I had two choices. I could play as in the game, or this looks feaible:

W's move on the lower side looks well placed, which was I rejected this.It's hard to attack the group containing 30 convincingly.

Can't find other alternatives, seems the only move I can play now.

Again, there are a few choices for this move. The attachment in my previous post is possible. However, the move played seems to coordinate my moves reaonably well and I believe that the attachment is smaller.

Again, I think this is the only move I can play now. I don't understand why he chose his last move with bad aji.

Do you think he should have played this?

I'm never sure what is the best I can do in this corner, but I don't think it is solid territory, and it is very sure that drmwc can't easily make kos later that I have a sure ko factory now.

36 is a ladder block, and the cut looks quite severe. But just connecting is too passive for B.

I expect the following:

B's position should be playable. There are other options for W. For example, he can still cut. One line is:

At this point, my 3 stones have a lot of aji (there's a ladder to save them which currently doesn't work for for me). So this should also be playable.
