Correct.
White 1 is the correct direction.
With 5 White plays solidly. Black has to pull out his
stones with 6, while White 7 and 9 produces a strong shape.
White has reduced the influence of Black's wall on the
right to almost nothing.
Horrible.
White 1 is a big mistake in direction.
White 3 can no longer set up such a strong shape as in the main line.
And if White captures a stone with 5, Black forces with 6, and with
8 creates a nice moyo using the wall on the right.
