No, never had that played against me. My website found 125 matches for this position and says that

It also seems like there's often a white stone at x when black plays like this...
That which can be destroyed by the truth should be.

Your website continues to be great! Delving further, it looks like white C and D are played when there's a stone at x, A is played when there's stuff going on in the top right, and B is played when there isn't much nearby.

Blacks move is a very normal joseki-move against the two space high pincer against the approach against the 3.4:

The main thing here is that if white can build a framework with the new wall and (a) area then black really just hurt himself with this.

As far as the game is concerned, blacks move is one that you don't see very often. I'll just push here and build thickness for now. This is consistent with my overall plan so far and I can't see anything that is obviously wrong with such moves.

I think Magicwand made a good decision in trying to derail the game as early as possible, from what I have gathered he is not a very well-studied player but rather relies on brute force in fighting, so this kind of move makes sense if you look at it from his perspective.

Now the marked exchange looks bad for black.

The marked stone looks good now, black probably wouldn't want to make that exchange now.

But I am not so sure about this fight, if :w10: works then all is well, but not so sure about that. (a) is probably proper but not sure if this is good enough.

ok..i may be overplaying. but once i start something i can not take back.
i have to go with this flow and install merits to my previous move.
below is not too bad.. i can live with that.. but still 1 and 2 exchange is really painful(ouch).

The only move.

If we have any beginners here then this is a basic lesson in shape:

In general, the closed triangle (the one with a black stone in it) is a good shape, while the open triangle to the right is a bad shape. Of course, this doesn't always apply but in most cases it is a pretty good rule.

I think what Magicwand is doing is similar to fishing, you throw out a hook with some bate and hope to catch something big. However, sometimes you go home hungry. I think the last black move is dubious because black cannot resist strongly so he must let white connect all his stones.

Black may try to sacrifice by playing at (a) instead but then white gets centre ponnukis and black cannot really be happy with such a result. This means he must play something painful by letting white connect all his stones.

This feels more or less forced. The marked black stone is hurt and white has a big corner. However white has three stones floating around so that's blacks compensation. I think a or b are miai so white has some aji that can be used.

i guess i will punch through and create weak white group on to top. it will become more complicated after i punch through.
my thought on go:
this game is so complicated that some overplay by me will not usually decide the outcome of the game.
reading skills after that overplay will usually decide the outcome. after the game become complicated there usually will be a way to take the lead because my opponent will not play a perfect game. it is there for me to catch that moment and take a lead. that is what we mean by "strength" and it will favor stronger player.
