;W[pp]
;B[dc]C[I wanted to mix it up a bit.]
;W[de]
;B[ce]C[Wasn't sure if white would avalanche or not, but I was fine either way.
*** Personally I'd rather avoid touching the white stone and pincer it instead since black has support in the adjacent corners, but I don't think your move is wrong, ***]

;B[cn]
;W[dg]
;B[ef]C[I wanted this peep to make it harder to break into the top side from white's position on the left.  I am under the impression that it's a possible joseki move.
]
;W[df]
;B[ed]C[Not as certain about this, but I thought it seemed fine at the time.
]
;W[ck]TR[df][ef]C[*** This is a joseki that is often seen in older games.. The marked exchange foregoes the invasion at  C12 in favor of stronger influence over the top. ***]
(;B[nq]C[*** I think this is the wrong direction. See variations for alternatives. ***]
(;W[qn]
;B[iq]C[Black had a one move advantage on the bottom side, so if white counterpincered, I felt black could end up with a better result.]
;W[oq]
(;B[eq]C[*** See variation. ***]
;W[np]
;B[fp]C[I liked this.  Black can pull out O3 at some point, and J3 looks good.
*** I disagree with your assessment. J3 looks overconcentrated, and white had it too easy in an area where he was outnumbered. ***]
;W[nc]
;B[kd]C[Working with the top left.
*** Good idea. ***]
;W[qf]C[Switching sides seems fine for white.]

;W[qd]
;B[pg]
;W[qg]
;B[ph]
;W[ng]C[Starting a fight here immediately seemed like an overplay.  If white wanted to break up the top, I think white should have played o15 instead of r14, since the right will not be big for black with the strong and low stone at r6.   White could also have considered a straight wedge at L17 or so.]
(;B[of]C[*** Too mild. Black is strong on the top side, so he shouldn't have to play such a defensive move. Look at the variation for a counterattack idea. End of comments. ***]
;W[qb]
;B[pb]
;W[me]
;B[md]C[Not sure if this is too direct.]
;W[nd]
;B[mc]
;W[mb]
;B[lb]C[I misread this as allowing black to connect under originally, and was trapped in the line.]

;B[qe]
;W[re]
;B[pe]
;W[nk]C[I was surprised that white didn't protect the cuts.  Black doesn't have big center prospects with that running group, after all.]

;W[ff]
;B[ge]C[This is why I liked playing E14.  White couldn't easily hold down the top directly from that group.]
;W[if]
;B[ie]
;W[je]
;B[id]C[I wanted to leave little aji for white to exploit, and felt white owed a move at some point due to the aji at K14.]
;W[kq]
;B[mp]C[Wasn't sure what white would do here.  If o5, I would have played L4 or so and fought.]
;W[ko]
;B[io]

;W[hn]
;B[in]

;W[gp]C[I think I missed this aji and got myself into a tough spot.]
;B[gq]
;W[fo]
;B[fr]
;W[fl]
;B[hf]C[Running with the stones seemed horrible, so I thought I could use them as bait.]
;W[gh]
;B[ig]
;W[mj]C[Here, this goes back to originally running with the O17 stone, and why I feel it was an overplay.  White ends up saddled trying to look after these stones for a good portion of the center fighting, and ends up taking 1-2 points with them in the end.]
;B[nl]C[N4 aji :)]
;W[no]
;B[mk]C[Apparently this surprised white, but I thought that with a central ponnuki, white's center basically disappeared.  Also, I was looking to threaten the R9 stones and not having any weaknesses helped a great deal.]
;W[kj]
;B[ji]
;W[ik]
;B[ij]C[Ruining the center.  Black's corners and side are more solid than white's and equal sized if not bigger.]
;W[jk]
;B[gj]
;W[fj]
;B[fi]
;W[gi]
;B[fk]
;W[ej]
;B[ek]C[Maybe I should have just connected instead.  I felt black got into trouble and then was let off easy here.]
;W[gk]
;B[gl]
;W[hj]
;B[fm]C[I switched to trying to capture something to get out, but I'm not sure it works for black if white plays perfectly.  Very dangerous, in any case.]

I counted black up by about 15 at this point, so I decided to just play solid and not give any chances, rather than try to pick up extra points, or milk the most out of every situation.]
