This a dgs game I played and that just ended. I was getting more and more behind from the early beginning, but somehow was able to make it a 3.5 loss.

I am not really sure where the biggest mistakes are, the game felt like playing a 2 stones stronger opponent.



Any advice is appreciated.

made for a really bad start. And wasn't too bright either.

and are mistakes imo

Something is fishy there I agree. But I can't find better moves really - R10? M6? I'm at a loss. Someone please open my eyes ^^

14: why??
18: akward way to escape
30: missed B1 and A2 exchange before this move
32: you can tenuki and go somewhere bigger
34: i like F6 better
38: i would have pushed H3 before connecting
40: G6 looks better
46: akward shape... J6 is a correct shape
50: didnt need hanne. Q5 was fine.
54: should have R5 atari and keep push
60: P8 is correct response
62: ...... dont know what to say about this move but looks like and overplay
84: E14 would have been a good way to attack black. <---very important..
94: that ko is not that big to give away free points to black. you can use endless threats to attack everything so you should not give him free points.
102: wrong shape..you are helping your opponent get good shape O8 looks better...
116: This move dont have any objective. what is the reason for this move??? i see many big moves like..p18 or o8.
122: i think you get better result by S8. if he wants ko..you will fight ko.
130: O8
136: lost points..
150: you didnt have any plan with this move...
206: B1 will give you better result <--easy ending game.
228: why???

your opponent was not 2 stone stronger. you could have won this game by playing better ending.

I think cut at Q7 is very good for white
