I would be very interested in any advice on the following game because it was as close to my best play as can be reasonably expected. I made a defense mistake at the very end. However, the reason for this was primarily that according to my count, it was very close, so I felt that I had to forgo any defensive move if I were not sure that it was needed. At move 207, I tried very hard to identify sente/gote/values with moderate success, so I would be happy with any information about this.

At move 230, you have to fight the ko. Not fighting it is tantamount to declaring that you've lost. |

I looked all the ko threats and I was sure that I could not win the ko because of the asymmetric situation. Is this incorrect? |

It's probably right, but you are already behind, so you've lost anyways. A ko at least provides an opportunity for your opponent to screw up, and black has at least a couple threats that are doozies. I only counted a couple really big ones for white too, so you're not in terrible shape. Black can also play the game move at any time in lieu of a threat, so it's not the biggest deal to run out of threats. |
