Firstly, they're all on the left side of the corner because "x" marks his weak group. Either he's going to play to look after it and give me a fat corner, or he's going to run risks with it by trying to hold the corner. Either way, this is tricksy for him. So, "a":

I don't really like anything here for White. "a" is probably fine for Black, but he can simply play "b" and make a big corner and make me worried and running out with my stone. It just feels bad to be forced to do this when I'm supposed to be being all initiative-holding. "B":

Trying to take the top side in a big way. It's not too bad (better than the last line I think) but it's rather putting all my eggs in one basket and guaranteeing Black a good corner. "C":

This just feels too squished into the corner, and Black's outside position feels really nice. It's my first choice normally, but here I think Black has a really genuine weak group at the top edge. As such, I think the contact point at the original "D" (4 main options) is better. It's weaker, but at the same time more flexible, and I can benefit a lot more from sacrificing something in a fight if I can build an attack on that weak group.

This way white can form a ko for life in the corner.

This way leads to complicated capture races in the corner. Not something I'd feel confident winning given the fight in the top left.

This is more passive. I build up solid corner + right side territory. But white starts to build up strength to attack the three stones at the top and is well into a solid moyo for center territory.

This way white steals much of the corner territory and top territory. But I have some thickness towards the center I can use to disrupt the white moyo that's forming.

Given all these possibilities, I like a hane on the inside better then a hane on the outside.

Something like this is the only one that feels questionable. But I still think it's good for black. Though I can revert to the above line fairly easily if I do 3 at 4.

Normally extending is correct, but there's the following:

I'm certain "a" is supposed to work in some situations, but I can't quite remember how, and if I play it out, get it wrong (or find that this is a situation where it doesn't work!) I lose out badly.

If extends, so will I, if he captures, I'm going to connect solidly, aiming at the following:

Edit: No, I'm not, that's silly. If I was going to let him connect, why play the corner probe in the first place. I don't like playing for the ko because he can cut instead of fight a ko, but how about:

It's that or "a" probably. I should have gone for the corner

Bleh, that's a nonsense move too, it doesn't work. I'm going to ko it.

This seems better for black, but probably white is still okay (at least white can live: 7 takes, and then white has an eye at 'a' and miai for an eye at P18 and at 'b').

I either extend or take the stone in atari. The second diagram feels more favorable, but I think taking the atari is proper-er. But I was really 51%/49% on this.

I've swapped around the prisoner counts because they were confusing me (I think the other Malkovich games had the number as the number of prisoners that side has managed to capture, not had captured - that way it can be easily just viewed as "bonus points for that colour" I guess)

This is the game sequence. I agree with daniel_the_smith and feel that white unnecessarily gave away all the aji in the corner just to play :w7:

in sente. I would recommend :b8:

as shown over a; it is honte and makes the corner absolutely secure.

I say that :w5:

must extend at :b6:

. While prokofiev's proposal may be slightly better for black, I still prefer white to extend rather than counter atari.

If white's intention is to play :w1:

in sente, white could have played it directly. It's pretty much sente anyway, because there isn't many big areas remaining on the board.
