just because few professionals experimented with such play doesnt make it right.
wait a minute!!! professionals dont play that move. they play S16 instead...
that makes difference of sente and gote(not really but followup move). that is why him protecting his corner S15 is wrong..and i wasnt comfortable seeing that move. i am pretty sure you are not going to disagree on that because you are strong enough to see my point.

I think you're right, I was afraid that White could take sente after S16 so I played a bit more forcing with S15 to keep sente, but now I think I gave White to much with this exchanges. Ina way it looks like ajikeshi because the invasionspot at R12 is gone after S15.
I never even considered to think of Black 19 as a mistake, but after reading your reasoning I think you're right, too. The side looks kind a uninteresting, while the lower right side is not settled at all. But in this situation I like to strenghen my corner, maybe this is due to style. What do you guys think about Shimari the other side (R14) with Black 19 instead of O17 ?
Thx for the comments, I really enjoy them and it is nice to see that even 3 or 4dans sometimes dont agree with each other

Err some quick ideas.
M19: Seems like a mistake in direction i would probably play r6.
M23: I understand that you dont want to be counter pincered with m3 but getting white to build a moyo seems plausible, since you get the chance to play e6 for exampel reducing white increasing your and protecting your framework. If white simply attaches at n3 i think the end result is fine for black.
M25: Dunno but i would tenuki and play b4.
M29: Feels weird you got miai points for base. I would still take b4 since it defends moyo alittle and pressure white some.
M33: Seems greedy to me but im unsure, hard to find the best move here.
M51: Maybe better at r10
Rest seems to be just pure reading
