;W[nq];B[np];W[mp];B[no];W[oq];B[pq]LB[jq:A][fc:B]C[A is a common joseki move.

Tenuki (see B) is not recommended here.]
(;W[jq]LB[mo:A][qn:B][lp:C]C[Pushing at A is a bad move.

B is a joseki move which gives black secure territory.

C is considerable if black wants to make a big moyo.]
(;B[mo];W[lp]LB[pn:A][jd:B]C[Without N5-M4 exchange it is possible for black to tenuki. I will explain about this in the next lecture.

Now the exchange has removed white's weakness at N3. Black should play A to secure the position.

Tenuki now (see B) is nonsense.]

(;B[lp]LB[lq:A][mo:B]C[Black would be happy if white responds at A.

White should fight out playing on B.]

(;W[fc]LB[mo:A][kp:B]C[Never push at A in this shape.

Pincer at B is powerful.]
(;B[mo];W[lp];B[lo];W[kp]C[Black is helping white having territory on the fourth line.])
(;B[kp];W[mo];B[mn]C["Hane at the head of two stones." White now has no good follow up to help N4 group .])))
