Comment[I'm not sure about this move.
Another sequence I think of is B b2 , W d2 , B E6 , but I think it's hard to fight.
JH : The exchange in the corner would be OK for Black but then your move is better as you can take sente.]

Comment[Is R5 or O4 better?
R5 is may be slightly better but Black should ignore the corner and take one stone in the center at "a"]

Comment[Black must defend in the center as "a" is too good for White. One idea would be to try attacking the White stones with "b" but the game is very difficult for Black.
Anyway White can still counter with "c" here]
