Sorry if the name's not very clear. This is what I mean:
After that, at sometime white will 3-3. I see the 3 common answers from black are A, B and C:
I get the idea of black C, but I really can't understand the merit of black A and B. I guess they depend on the right white group and the position of the marked black stone. From what I recall C is usually not played when the marked black stone is at D.
Can anyone enlighten me on this matter, or show me a good reading source about this?
Hoshi, 3-6 approach, kick, nobi, and the 3-3 invasion later.
The similarity between Go and computing is the seemingly infinite number of possibilities.-

You can look up these variations on josekipedia. (Although they don't include your "b"; instead they have a variation for C16). Long story short, E18 (your "c") allows W to take the corner while the other two options (C16 and D17) have some chance of keeping the corner.

Thank you very much!
That's exactly what I was hoping for ^^
I saw my B several times before, in most cases b get quite nice influence. Can't really find any example though ~.~
