;W[pd]
;B[jj]C[This is an agressive strategy from Steve - White won't be able to build up a moyo easily.]
;W[cj]
;B[nc]
;W[qf]
;B[pb]
;W[qc]
;B[kd]
;W[cf]
;B[ef]C[Interesting move, consistent with overall idea here so I think it's good. Could also invade at C12 instead.]
;W[cc]
;B[cd]C[Now Black's strategy falls apart - must block at D17 instead to keep top and centre territory. If C16 next by White then Black plays D15 or C15.]
;W[dc]
;B[ec]
;W[eb]
;B[fc]
;W[fb]
;B[gc]
;W[bd]
;B[be]
;W[bc]
;B[ce]C[Black's position is now cramped and open onthe top edge. White has sente to stabilise the left side.]
;W[cn]
;B[cl]C[Good attack by Black.]
;W[en]
;B[dm]C[D7-D6 exchange is not really helpful for Black. It strengthens White and weakens the Black corner. Maybe better to just play D9?]
;W[dn]
;B[fl]C[Again I think D9 better - F8 move leaves a peep for White at D9.]
;W[fp]
;B[fq]
;W[gq]
;B[eq]
;W[gp]C[White seals Black into the corner, and has all the potental for territory on lower and right sides. If White lives on left side inside the Black area of influence then White will be far ahead in territory.]
;B[bp]
;W[gb]
;B[hc]C[Perhaps Black can ignore this to play C12 and take the whole left side. White H17 is painful for Black but in the game White gets the nice move of G18 in sente and can then come back on the left. White is in control.]
;W[bf]
;B[ae]
;W[ch]
;B[bk]C[This Black move hurts White's eyeshape on the edge but it drives White out into the area where Black was trying to make territory. Might be better to press from above with some move like D11.]
;W[fi]C[White is happy to play this move as it erases a lot of Black central influence and also threatens the Black string of stones below.]
;B[gj]
;W[eg]
;B[ff]C[F13 would be more severe and aim to seal White in.]
;W[fg]C[White has nice shape now.]
;B[bi]
;W[bh]
;B[bj]C[This is slow.]
;W[hh]C[Again White is delighted to jump out.]
;B[jh]
;W[fj]
;B[gk]
;W[kq]C[White grabs sente for this important move. Doesn't look like Black can kill the White group on the left.]
;B[di]C[This is the best point to start with anyway.]
;W[ci]
;B[qn]
;W[np]
;B[rp]
;W[qq]
;B[qk]
;W[qi]C[This move finishes the fuseki and all areas are now established. Black still needs a move at the top to close off the territory there, but White could then defend the lower side (e.g. L5 or K6) and be ahead by close to 10 points plus komi. So, Black must try to reduce or destroy the White lower side.]
;B[lq]C[Black goes for a full invasion. This will need to succeed or it will expand the lower area further. The alternative would be to reduce with K4 for example, then play G6 in sente - limits White area and builds points in the centre for Black who could then get back to block at H18.]
;W[kp]
;B[kr]
;W[jr]
;B[mr]
;W[lp]
;B[js]C[This may not help Black, and it loses chance to play J2 which is a nice double-threat move (can connect left with G2).]
;W[ir]
;B[nq]
;W[mp]C[This is a safe move but perhaps leave Black some scope at P3. Taking P3 by White would seem to finsih the Black group completely.]
;B[ne]C[Black abandons the lower side (as a total failure unless he can get back to P3 and manage to live inside), to try to make central territory here.]
;W[gf]
;B[df]
;W[dg]
;B[pi]
;W[ph]
;B[pj]
;W[oh]
;B[oo]
;W[op]C[No there's no chance on the lower side for Black, he must make a big central territory here which seems impossible. Still, G6 would be a good point to stat with.]
;B[mn]
;W[km]
;B[in]
;W[ln]
;B[mm]
;W[gn]
;B[il]C[Black has no chance now. Not enough territory and no White groups to attack. The stones on the upper side in particular are not working well, and the invasion on the lower side has died completely.]
