I like trying to bait white into an approach if W2 is D4. I then take the remaining corner and play continues in a way I find fun.]
;W[dd]WL[2618.798]
;B[oq]BL[2685.66]C[White did not accept the offer so I settled into the orthadox fuseki. This is an opening I played a lot as a ddk(and still now) so I feel comfortable playing it. ]
;W[nc]WL[2605.472]C[This move surprised me. Gogod shows that it is played but definitly not the most common move. It seemed that white would play this way in order to play fast and build a framework with k16.(I didn't check gogod, it just seems good to me) I decded to back off high for that reason. Fourth line stones better negate influence.]

I decided on N15 since I could still pull off an invasion on the left if white defended thecorner or expanded the side, but was worried about how I would reduce white if he got a move to expand the framework. I tried to count roughly here and put myself behind 10 points of solid territory.(My counting might be horrible). I figured that since pressing white down also built up my side it would be the best way to win back the difference.]

And this might be weird, but given that I'm currently self conscious about reducing frameworks my goal in ths fight was to see how much I could flatten white on top. Killing A was not as important to me.]
