Choosing a joseki:
Since josekis work effectively in a certain direction, examine positions at adjacent corners and sides before choosing a joseki. The opposite corner matters only if a ladder is involved. Some guidelines:
1. Have support for a fight - A high position provides support, a low position does not.
2. Take the side with most value -
2a. A juncture point for both sides is of great value.
2b. A side where making territory is uncertain is of little value.
3. Consider strategic balance.
