Hi folks,

This was played on KGS. Only ID for rank was the guy said he was Tygem 7d. Obviously, he more or less destroyed me, but I'm not sure to what extent. I know I blocked the wrong way with B101 on B8 (but this was pretty much blitz after short main time). I made a horrid exchange with B65 on M18; realized immediately after if anything I should have played M16. K5 exchange early on seems bad, but I just wanted to try it.

Any comments are appreciated. Not sure where to even start against players who are obviously so much better

Thanks y'all.

Hi Cynosure,

P18.

You have the (very common) tendency to create new groups when you already have weak groups on the board, or similarly, to take some territory when you have an urgent (weak group) situation on the board. Some examples: 9/25/25/79/85
