I prefer the nobi, as it's fairly likely to be sente (although, I probably would have approached the top right instead of either). However, if this kick is to be played, it should probably follow with this:

Need to
This last move is not one I see often. High dans play two space pincers with this shape. Need to figure out why they do that ...
The corner aji makes me worry a lot less about these two stones, though.

Just for the lower right quadrant, with (a)
empty , this position was in at least 3 pro games:

I'm going to settle the corner. Black can't separate my left stones without hurting one of her groups (either the corner or side group. Either a or b damage one of her groups, or I may peep the one space jump, and then descend from my iron pillar.

I feel that this is a mistake from black. I can play something like 4 here to remove any aji from the one stone. Black is still not that safe. Or I may play something other than 4. I also like jumping from my two stones, to aim at the 3-3 in the corner later.
$$Bcm20
