High Approach Upper Tsuke Solid Connection
Recently, the solid connection at 6 is coming up as an alternative for the hanging connection at A. The idea is, that after white's attachment at B, black's defense at C is impossible. Thus, white is more or less guaranteed the option to play either at B or D.
Because the corner is quite large, black 7 is a common move. White concludes a simple joseki with 8, but she can also play tenuki.
Black could also play the hane at 1. This diagram shows one possible continuation. Instead of white 8, white A-black 9-white tenuki is also possible. As stated, the advantage for white over the hanging connection is that after white A, black will have no choice but to answer at B. -- AndreEngels This is a copy of the living page "High Approach Upper Tsuke Solid Connection" at Sensei's Library.
