Hey jeromie, let's decide black or white with odd or even.

I guess if you guess correctly you get black? We're both 9kyus, do you want to play with a 6.5 komi or no komi?
Good luck!

I'll guess even. Since we're the same rank, let's play with komi.

Edit: I was wrong, so you can set up the board with your first move when you're ready.

Alright, here we go! Good luck.

Thanks awef! I hope we can play a good game together.

Hm. This is the move I usually play. I was also considering

3 is where I 'expect' white to play since Studying Shusaku. I considered playing it with the mindset 'your opponent's point is your own'. But if I play there, I'll feel obligated to make a shimari from that point with my next move to mitigate the influence of white 2. I also considered the other komoku point in the top left, but in the end I prefer my move. If he takes the other empty corner, I can enclose the top right and if he approaches bottom right I'll be able to extend from a corner enclosure and pincer at the same time.

As I said earlier, this was my plan all along. I've made this 3-4 / 4-4 move in the fuseki since seeing one of a Nick Sibicky's lectures on YouTube. I actually like this quite a bit with black's two 3-4 stones. If awef prioritizes the 3-4 corner enclosures we could end up with a position like this:

I think this position looks good for white (though I'm uncertain how it would be seen by professionals--I'll have to look it up after the game is over!), so I don't think things will play out quite this way. But that means I should get to approach one of his 3-4 stones before he makes an enclosure and/or deny the extensions he wants. If it does end up like this, I'll be happy to play from this position.

In an earlier post I said that this shape looked good for white:

But the more I look at it, the more I think this puts white in a bind. If both player keep playing peacefully, then the board ends up like this:

The extensions and joseki choices in the lower left might be a bit different (since I don't know a lot of joseki this is the first thing that comes to mind) but the general idea will remain the same: white looks cramped compared to black and will have a hard time keeping black from making a massive moyo on the right that builds solid territory AND radiates influence across the board. It's not completely unplayable for white, but the territorial advantage black has with the second shimari will probably pay off by the end of the game. Because of this, I think white needs to go ahead and approach the lower right.

In addition to my own reasoning, I've been watching the Malkovich game between SoDesuNe and topazg. (For the record, since this is a closed book game, I started watching that game before I began playing this one: I didn't go look it up when this fuseki occurred.) When a similar (though not identical) fuseki took place, topaz approached the lower right corner. The play of stronger players confirms my own thoughts: white needs a move in the lower right to prevent black's right side from becoming too strong.

Honestly, my biggest hesitation in playing this move is my lack of joseki knowledge. Even though the high approach to a 3-4 stone is really common, I don't have the follow up moves memorized. That makes me a little nervous: I expect him to attach underneath the stone, but I'll have to play out a few variations to see what response gives me a result that I like.

edit: I left out a word in my explanation.

In this position, white should probably play the marked stone one space closer, as shown, since it puts a lot of pressure on black's group if black doesn't respond. All of the moves A through E also look like good reductions or probes for white to play with his sente, that should keep black's moyo from getting out of hand. If nothing else, black played the marked black stone low, meaning that white can easily cap to limit any moyo potential, so white may want to play A before he approaches on the left even. Perhaps playing A and maybe E depending on how black answers to see what black wants, and then playing the appropriate reduction of B, C, or D is in order?

It's not to be forgotten also that white has great potential in the upper left with the marked white stone in place to counter black's potential.

Of course, white's other option to black's initial approach on the left side is to pincer, which may also turn out decently.

In retrospect I think I should've tried the pincer and emphasized the right, maybe something like

but then white I suppose white can tenuki and enclose the corner, so I don't know which line I prefer. I like extending to 15 in response to white 14, or perhaps approaching bottom left corner at either a,b,c or d since a white move at e limits my bottom group and even threatens to seal me in if I'm not careful.

You can only number from 1-9 and then 0 for 10. After that, you need to make a new diagram and increment the move counter at the beginning (the number after m in the first line) to the number you want it to use for 1 on the diagram. This may make more sense if you look at diagrams later in the game from other malkoviches. In addition, the numbering in this manner can only go up to 99 or maybe 00, so you have to start over afterwards.
