Hi wingly,

Between :b13: and :b23: , B already made some mistake
( hopefully other higher level folks can point out ).

:b27: :-? Not the right way to play a ko threat --
this is a normal approach move to a 4-4: W can tenuki.
Instead, consider an attach: D17, or C16.
This way, your follow-up is continue with a second attach to his 4-4 stone.
This is very different from a double-approach to the 4-4...

:b29: :-? ...which you also missed. Even without any ko, :b29: is soft.
At least double approach ( C14 or D14 ).

:w32: Look at the whole board:
Upper Left corner: W gets a Better result than joseki,
thanks to :b27: , :b29: .

Lower left corner: your ko was a disaster for yourself;
you just gave W a HUGE corner.

Up to here, Black gave up a lot to W.

:w44: K16.

:b45: Impossible. :shock: You must cut W (K16).

:w46: Trying to be fancy. No need -- just connect at K16.
See Toothpaste .

:b51: Very slow, very small -- almost a pass.

:b61: Again, small & slow; not looking at the whole board.

:b67: Again, small & slow; almost a pass.

:b85: , :w86: :study: Classic Toothpaste .

:b91: Again, very slow & small -- almost a pass.

By now, White already has a huge lead; very difficult for Black.

B had mistakes, slow and small moves ( as early as :b13: .. :b23: ),
and continued throughout the game to fall further and further behind.
White was ahead from early on; it was not sudden at all.

:b93: Very slow & small; also wrong direction: you didn't even block W (S13, instead).

:black: 119 Very small; almost a pass.

Biggest problems:

- :study: :study: Very slow & small moves: you basically Passed more than 6 times.

- :study: :study: Basic broken shapes. :b45: See Toothpaste .

- :study: Life-and-death ( Lower Left corner ).

- More advanced problems: ko threats ( :b27: , :b29: ).
