on was without fault, although Black could have made different strategic decisions at two points (I would be interested in comments on this).
was another unexpected move, but I think 
is not bad. It separates White's stone at D4, making it hard for White to escape that way, and if White defends at A Black might capture at B, and it will be a little difficult for White to get a base. with two eyes. If White captures at B, Black might atari at A and maybe get a ko. Finally, White can not make an atari at C (assuming White has A and C5) to make a ladder, because Black has N14.
because the ladder at a does not work for white.
, so black ends up with a dango. Then white can choose from several ways to connect, making further sacrifices for shape for running out or life along the edge. Meanwhile, the two black stones above start looking a bit more lonely. Maybe the earlier attack on the reducing black group at the top will have been helpful, with the position of the white G14 stone.
is the kind of move I feel like I should anticipate, but I usually don't. It's the obvious shape point and puts white in a real bind. It's also from the correct direction, helping black's two stones above while attacking. The part of me playing white's half of the game feels visceral uncomfortableness at seeing that move played and having to push out crudely. I wonder what the "right way" is to deal with 
is good because it forms a base for Black, and stops White from forming a second eye on the bottom. White can probably run out, but when Black chases White, Black should be able to gain strength for an attack on White's stones at G14 and L15. Sure, White has damaged the moyo, but Black's groups in the lower left area are pretty much safe now, and I think Black is slightly ahead in terms of solid territory.
are strong and low, black is undercut and needs another move to make actual territory. White could jump to a, for instance, if we get back here first.
) instead, the aji of 
comes to use, and a combination of cuts and ataris gives white a lot of options for getting out.
threatens all of them. One way or another, White should be able to escape and possibly put some pressure on Black's bottom group. It is possible the lower-right White stones will be helpful here. I also think White might consider linking up at E14 soometime soon.
