Minimal insight here as I am stuck under a cat that I have to reach over to type.

Basically, I don't want to get hemmed in and want them to waste a move securing the stones on the right.

I thought about this a long time. I considered, in order:

1. Push out at H14. Seems very sad. I'd be ok with if it gave me some opportunity to mess with the top left group, but I don't see anything.
2. Push and cut at G13. A tricky fight, but probably manageable
3. Connect underneath at C14
4. Play somewhere to build the bottom or tenuki, assuming he can't kill my D16 group with one move
5. A weird jumping-out move like J15

I decided on C14. If he spends another move here to connect up or whatever, I get sente to play elsewhere. If not, I'll hope to come back and attack from a stronger position later

The vital point for this fight. White now has a definite advantage.
