I like K16, I guess my only concern is that if black finishes the left it may feel like a missed opportunity.

I think this is playable, but it does require us getting some good use out of K16, maybe with some pressure towards the top right since we have moves on both sides.

@white
If black plays :b2: low in your diagram, I'm not worried, as white can reduce the side easily. If it's high, we could come out as in the diagram you reposted, or maybe we could get away with a forcing move on the 3rd line on the left to disrupt black's plans and then continue with it. There's still a fair amount of space between the high stone and the approach move, so I think black will have to end in gote or leave a big invasion for later. I guess the question is whether black would treat the approach to the top right as sente.

If it were me, I'd be reluctant to have to respond to the approach, but the double approach is much more severe for black than if black does it on the other side, due to the presence of the white stones nearby.

I think we should play on the left side. Maybe one of these:

I don't really know which one is best. But left side seems important.

I agree that the left is the most important. My order of preferences is
1) C9
2) C14
3) D14
4) C13
5) C8

C9 looks appealing. In the event that black responds as follows...

I suppose it might be fine, since the corner is still open at the marked area. And if white plays another move in the top left area, we could attack the marked white stone.

Maybe we could even put a bit more pressure:

Also, there's the possibility that white moves to the right. For example:

In this case, I'm trying to think of our next move. It seems a bit awkward and low to approach the top left, since the marked stones are low:

@black:
I guess what I'm trying to say is that I like C9 alright immediately, but I'm not 100% sure of our best options after white plays these types of follow ups.

What do you think of the positions here?

I think that white made a mistake: they should play top side, as it is large, but the left side is rather unstable. I think that they should have played F17.

They could have made any aggressive play by us look like an overplay.

But now they have a gap at F16/F17.

I think that now is a perfect time to play C14:

And if we don't play it we may be leaving them the opportunity to make a double wing formation in the upper left.

My order of preferences is:
1) C14
2) C14
3) C14
4) D14

@white
I know andreyl suggested the two space high pincer, which looks reasonable to me, but do we want to consider the one-space high pincer too? I'm a bit worried about giving black an ideal counterpincer-cum-extension from the two stones and would like it to leave black either thin or overconcentrated.

Jumping in the corner in response for black would be bad, as we could then lock up the top side very solidly. The question is if we would come out well in the fight if black jumps out or switches direction on us.

@Joaz and observers

I think that my heuristic applies to that question. :)

Which does White prefer?

My thinking with the one space pincer is to discourage black from jumping into the corner even more so than with the two space. Does a double approach work well against the one-space high pincer, though? I'm not that familiar with it.
