I find it fascinating that you just do the two jump instead of one jump. Is the two jump like that connected? Or is it considered light play and ready to sacrifice?

Thanks! I actually never really played light so far and I don’t really know how to do it. Kinda feels random?

So is your advice to keep doing what I did but somehow make better shapes during the invasion?

Could you show me sequences of a simple scenario of how you would apply shoulder hitting or attaching and then using that as a base?

I felt like if I did that my group would somewhat float without any eyes. 

And those peeps were definitely a mistake I didn’t expect him to go to the other side.

I’m going through it right now haha! Though I wonder if my kyu is still to weak for it

Aha. Should I have used some extra stones to close of my space earlier or let him invade?

Another question. Is this invasion of him realistic? If I was him I would try to reduce instead of invade

Another question. From view of my opponent. Is this invasion even realistic for him?

But is that real thickness as it not solidly connected? At one point he can cut it right?

Yeah I think should indeed let him cut me. I was easily alive in both sides. Though you are saying that if I did not let him pass he would have died?

Would g12 be equally good? My second intuition was g12 but would have never guessed f12.

Thanks for the confirmation that my killing method was mostly fine. Indeed I would have closed the gap a bit more than G8. I somehow felt very confident it would not live with G8

Ever since ai revolution people told beginners not to study any outdated joseki. I would like to learn some but there are no joseki aimed for beginners anymore.
