I got very lucky in winning this game (I read it all out but he had to make a few mistakes for it to work)

I would appreciate any comments on it, I added a few of my own.

Are you actually asking for a review of the white side of a 3-stone handicap game?

Is that bad o.O?

I took a lot of time on this game, and I really messed up xD. I thought a review of this game would be good since I spent so much time thinking all the variations through (obviosuly not enough on that cut early on -.-)

I'm obviously not strong enough to review any of this, but I'd be interested to see what you guys have to say about d14 (seems a bit unfavorable for w) and r8 (armpit, feels like bad shape) :scratch:

My teachers would have said it's not the best use of time. The reason is that if black plays well, white is supposed to lose. You start out at a disadvantage, and so it's difficult to say which overplay is best, for example. It's much better the other way around. Can we see a game like that?

Alternatively, I think it's okay to extract a particular board position or two where you have a question.

I think the game is fine to review. White makes a significant number of mistakes that are not specific to handicap games (e.g. o18 should be n16, 19 is bad, the top left trade is really bad for white)
