I probably should have done this instead of take the 30 point play in the upper right, but now either he gives me the corner or outside influence based on what joseki he picks and how he plays it. The game might be very close soon
This is usual with the low chinese fuseki, I think it's fine with the high. It doesn't give black either the corner or outside influence--just a group that will have to take care of itself. I'm not sure this is the right play here, but white is not obligated to give you either outside influence or the corner.
Oh, that's not a criticism of your move, mind you.

First some thoughts: I think my other earlier move with the high Chinese isn't the best. It aims for a fight to build either the left or top, but with Black being so solid in both corners I don't know if a fight is exactly what I want. Its not game-losing, but probably a little sub optimal.
Now, I think Black is being too jealous here, jumping directly in to the pre-pincer. I think I am starting to see a trend for the game. I excel at punishing these kind of overly jealous players, so I think I will be very comfortable. I would have played like this as black:

for obs:
if you are sdk then remember that below shape can not be good.
i remember something similar happened on topazg's game and i also said it can not be good.
word of advice:
do not try to analyze why it is bad..just remember it is a bad shape then you dont have to think.

I like Ed Lee's characterization of the second diagram as "normal" rather than "correct." The more I play, the more I believe that there is rarely an "only" move (setting aside life & death issues). The player's reason for a move, I think, is really important. Pros make stupid-looking moves sometimes because they have a special reason. But it is like learning a language--generally, you should learn the "rules" and the "proper" way to write/say something, but then you can break the rules when the situation calls for it.
So I think it is important to teach people the "normal" or "proper" move; if a player considers the normal move and decides it isn't good, then he or she can choose something else.

I was actually able to find three pro games where the former was played:
(...)
(...)
Who understands move W60, resp. B61 of the second game,
Kim_Hyo-kon--An_Yeong-kil.sgf?
Could s.o. of this forum pls. explain to me, why it would be disadvantageous for B to cut with B61?

The criticised move is technically a bump with a hane already played.
