Black should aim to expand his potential at the top by creating thickness. xan threatens Whites base and
protects the corner. Black then goes
for thickness with xar and following.
This is because he cannot expect to
make many points in the lower right.

How should Black continue? Protecting against a cut between xan and
xbp is too small at this time.

The most severe attack is to separate, but since that isnt possible in
this case, Black does the next best
thing and makes White heavy with
xar. Black cannot tell yet whether to
peep again at A or at B, so he considers the best direction of attack.
In this case from the center offers
the best prospects. If Black can control the center it will be hard for
White to catch up. Black is happy
to get to protect at xbl. When White
runs out with ZBM, how should Black
continue?

This ZAM is the most common invasion. How should Black continue,
playing moyo style?

Attacking from above or from below will only give Black a small
benefit. The correct direction is from
the center. Controlling the center
will be a huge benefit.

When playing moyo style you do not worry about points in the early stages.
Play fast, fourth line moves and build a large framework. When the opponent
comes in, you get benefits from attacking. The benefits can be influence as
well as immediate territory. As the game progresses you must also pay attention to the overall balance, of course.
