;B[qe];W[pp];B[ed]C[Black's high moves have only a loose control of the corners, while they have more influence on the sides and center than a 3-4 point play, for instance. When Shi plays this unusual opening with Black, I think his plan is to start an early fight in an area advantageous to Black.]
;W[pc];B[md]C[Again, Black aims to contron the sides with this high pincer. ];W[od]
;B[pg];W[qd];B[pe];W[rd];B[dp]LB[mf:A]C[The joseki move is Black A, but Black's play taking the open corner is bigger. ]
;W[jd];B[hc];W[pj];B[mf]C[At this point, I would continue playing opening moves, as the immediate fight is what Black has prepared for with his high moves (see var).]
(;W[ne]C[This peep started a wild fight, which favored Black. This premature fight made the game difficult for White, and I would call it a mistake. ]
;B[me];W[nf];B[ng];W[mg];B[nh];W[lg];B[ke];W[li];B[mi]LB[kg:A]C[Black sets up the attachment at A, that will appear in a few moves. ]
;W[lj];B[mk];W[pm];B[ok];W[pk];B[ol];W[oi];B[mj]C[I would suggest playing lightly, as in the variation. ]
(;W[je]C[Bad shape. Black's next move will hit the vital point and ruin White's shape in the center. This second mistake made the game extremely difficult for White.]
;B[kg];W[lh];B[kf]TR[je]C[Black has moved out into the center, and the marked White stone is not well placed. ]
;W[he];B[if];W[fe];B[fc];W[hd];B[gg];W[ee];B[cd]C[With two floating weak groups, the game is already becoming a desparate fight for White. ]
;W[gi];B[ji];W[lk];B[jk];W[ll];B[pl];W[ql];B[qm]C[Although this cut doesn't work locally, Black can use it to force from the center and continue his attack. ]

;W[il];B[hj]C[Black moves out between the White groups to make an effective splitting attack that will continue throughout the game. No more comments. ]
