Does anyone have thoughts about iLLLuck's joseki choice? I'm never quite satisfied with the relationship between D4 and L3. In this position, I prefer when W goes high and I can play K4,for example.

Re: #171 Hyperpape vs. illluck
This is somewhat weird and I hope Hyperpape doesn't mind (if you do, please let me know):
I have a few alternatives that I think are interesting for my next move, would it be possible to ask for a vote (that ends in, say, a day)? If there is a tie (or no responses) I will pick one.

Sure
Though, I think I should remove C because it's very dependent on a choice for white (and I think sansan probably better than jump up for white).

Re: #171 Hyperpape vs. illluck
I know, but it's OK to if you are interested as I don't think the choices will affect the game (you'll see the final decision anyways, and other moves don't reveal anything about strategy because they are just interesting possibility not related to each other)

Re: #171 Hyperpape vs. illluck
I would choose 'd'. I won't discuss this decision now because I don't want to make it easy for illuck if he picks one in the case of a tie

Re: #171 Hyperpape vs. illluck
No point hiding this I suppose...
I was a bit surprised to see the most normal (and simple) move not suggested, at e. With a, the normal continuation is the cash-grabbing block. There's some coverage of this and other choices in this lower side shape after the approach in chapter 10 of "A Dictionary of Modern Fuseki: The Korean Style".

@Uber, yeah, I wanted to try some less common responses :p The common joseki makes me want to yawn :p
in the database.

exchange just hurts White's chances here, I think. Either of the standard jump into the corner and blocking josekis seem locally worse for Black, and white can always come back for ;w1: if desired.
