Oh thanks a lot.
This was the situation. Should I enclose my corner then?

Hey guys, I've had several times that I approach my opponent's 4-4 corner with a knight's move and he does a tenuki that I don't need to respond to. How do I attack that corner then? Every time it happens to me it tends to end badly. Thanks. |

Hello, What about trying a DoubleApproach ? [Edit] SerDiuK wrote: ...and he does a tenuki that I don't need to respond to. Are you really sure you don't need to reply ? that looks strange to me to tenuki in that situation doing a gote move... [/Edit] |

I suppose the sequence was this one ? At 12, I put everything that went in my mind... my favorite choice is : "Wait for someone stronger advice "  ... well... I'm too shy... I should try to choose one... so I will play 'c' at Q10 because that work well with both the top/right hoshi and the approach move... but that leave a possible invasion at R8... https://badukmovies.com/episodes/the-we ... ima-part-1 |

To me, M17 looks attractive since it aims at undercutting white. It does leave behind a weakness around O17, but only going to N17 or O17 seems more slack against the topside group. A double approach in the bottom right or possibly P6 in the style of old chinese games seems big also, since white tenukied to build the topside position. The left side is smaller than the right for black, because C14 is low. In addition, playing F in the previous post seems like it lets white strengthen the bottom right stone by pincering, and G lets white put pressure by extending from the bottom right as well, fixing his issue there. |

Thank you guys, I've done some research through sensei's library and it all makes much more sense. |

Play the double approach. It has the added advantage that as a noob you probably will get the chance to study the attach-extend joseki in a situation where it actually makes sense.  White probably continues with either  or "a" below. Work on understanding the differences in responding to White's two different choices.  You can also play the double approach without responding in the upper right... |

oh... ok I think I would have play 5-5 at P5 in response to the double approach. Is it good too or would it be wrong in that case ? |

5-5 in response to double approach is another choice, but is a little bit soft shape-wise. It is good to take sente though. A common mistake is after 5-5 and black 3-3 to block at one of the 3-4 points: unless there is already a white pincer stone to that side the block is often rather heavy. It's usually better to play knight's move press if you continue locally. |

So usually knight's move like  or "a" instead of blocking at "b" or "c" |
