Reducing a framework with a cap

Depending on what side the opponent chooses to protect, White plays a tsuke at a or b on the other side and aims at making sabaki, which is a light running form that either builds eyes or connects to your own groups. With sabaki one does not have to be greedy though and sacrifice the tails rather than make a group heavy.
