Hello,
I 'm looking for some insight on this situation, where
invade black shimariI came with this sequence, but then white can make two eyes what ever I try.
Is there a better way for black to handle the invasion ?

There are dozens of variations possible after Whites invasion. This page on Sensei's Library shows a few of the more common variations: http://senseis.xmp.net/?3453Enclosure43Invasion How Black responds depends heavily on the larger context. For example Black might choose to let White live in the corner in exchange. In these shimari invasions it may not be possible to kill the White stones, or killing the white stone might allow White to get strong on the outside and erase a black moyo. |

What you want to do depends on positions around the corner - expecting to kill every single white stone in the area wont probably work, as is a valid probe. Note that you have two ataris available on move  ...See http://senseis.xmp.net/?3453Enclosure43Invasion |

@EdLee : thanks, I now see that my was wrong.Unfortunaltly, sente/gote is in my "I'm aware of but never use it" too long list, just before "ko fight" and "direction of play"  I should definitly give sente more importance when choosing my next move.@Everyone : Thanks a lot, I was aware that hoshi could be invaded, but with a shimari on komoku, I was thinking that was an overplay and that there should be a way to kill all the white invading stones...I played komuku and shimari a lot wihtout even knowing that the invasion was possible... As for the invasion of hoshi, I suppose we should not invade the shimari to early because of the wall the opponent will get in return. Is that right ? I also looked at the page you pointed me to on SL :3453Enclosure43Invasion and I didn't see any variation starting like that : So it should not be a good option for black... I suppose that's because it will make black stones not to work well all together. If I was white I would answer that  with  at (a) or (b) To me, it's not that bad for black... so may be white would not do that... white should be happy to force black to crawl on the 3rd line in a region that black wanted for him (if not, why playing a shimari), I suppose that's why (or a least one of the reasons) is not a good choice...

This is my first instinct: And then there are many variations. E.g: And in most of those diagrams, you could probably play elsewhere after (or even after ) and treat and as probing moves.
