A good pincer, hoped he would pincer a little closer, this isn't quite as pretty as the other one, but I still get life here,
I second-guessed myself a few times before deciding on playing here, it gets complicated, but it aims to make use of the strong point at "z"

"a" and "b" are very easily dealt with, but "c" is complicated, and I don't know if it's worth it.
I nearly played "a" myself, but decided that this route, though more complicated, holds no danger.

I think this is his best sequence, he gets life on the bottom, and I get it on the top

I'd really like to try separating his stones one way or another, but I don't see a way to do that
and make life locally. And I don't think I like the idea of running on this board. It's too easy for the attacker to make profit rather directly.
The problem is that if I play like this to try and seal white in, he gets the interior corner point. It's a rather hard stone to approach, so it makes the cross cut simply not work. I don't see any variations from this point that look appealing to me at all.

Since white outnumbers me in the region, and I don't see a compelling attack line, I'll just try and make life locally, and the way to do that is by flinging stones around as attachments to shake the tree and see what falls out.
Maybe something like this as a reasonably convoluted continuation:

The variations branch from here, but I won't embarrass myself by trying to show them
But I think this is reasonable.

a is also a possibility, but I like the crosscuts here, I stand by the marked move as a way out. I never see any danger in crosscuts, because essentially, if YOU are the one getting crosscut, you have flexibility to decide which side is more important.

Man I love me some crosscuts, here's how it ought to play out:

And I'm feelin awfully happy, settled, more or less captured the pincer stone, there are shenanigans, but nothing dangerous.
