W9: i think this is more flexable than Q14 B10: appears to be strong but i am thinking unnecessary aggresion. Below is my choice. |

B14: Mistake. It should jump knight move to P11 W15: I was not sure how i answer B14 but realize that jump to the center is good for white. after many trade of jumping black loses influene on top. I think i gained some points after my final jump below I am regreting the fact that i didnt answer peep. I think black made good decision not to answer my peep. But it is getting more complicated and stronger player usually come out ahead because weaker player miss one critical move. (i will discuss on next post) |

W37: I know that it is an overplay but i had no choice B39: This is the chance #1 black lost imo. simple S9 would leave R7 cut or S12. i think that would kill white group and i get some compensation of thickness. black ahead by capturing my group. some might disagree with me but black second missed chance is B44 I have analyzed the board and came to that conclusion. Below is my assessment of the position. capturing at 44 is the critical point black should have played. playing ko for life and getting little compensation in the corner is good enough to win this game. But if black read that much then i can not give him two stone. ![]() |

Move 45 below was too big. black should never lose that point. luckly i had enough sense to tenuki corner. again B46 is big point but my W47 was even bigger imo. B48 is a mistake that solidified by weak lower side. any invasion on bottom will give me enough influence to capture center group without any fight. I am thinking B48 cause that thickness. B60 is also mistake. It is looking for ladder breaker but it is not that important at this point of the game. I was really proud of myself of finding move W53 At this point B54 is very small but i think he played it to attack my group by taking my eye space away from me. Because of that move i was able to solidify center influence and was happy. I will stop my review of this game now. Black had some more chances but white in the middle appears to be too be for black player which forced him to kill his group clean. I have pointed out many of his mistakes but it was very close game at the end. that must means that i must have made many mistakes myself. Yes i am weak. that is why i am trying to improve. any comments or questions are welcomed. |

I have self-reviewed another game i played. Full of mistakes..some has to do with my opponent being much weaker player.. I am learning how to use multigo... SGF i created was also full of mistakes.. i have posted them anyway for the record purpose. hope i can get a game with even or stronger player so my review can have more quality. |

Move 8 normally at r8, r10 gives black what he wants Move 12 is a little overplay, I would p13. If Black o17, w can invade at q5. |

I have to say, you made a good game out of it. You play a lot tougher than I would have, after that opening. Keep playing, I want to see more of your games ![]() |

Keep playing, I want to see more of your games ![]() I waited and waited for the chance to kill my opponent... when i had that chance...... i played timid (due to limited time) KGS games that i play is not my style of play. I am susally maintaining balance person but it is my chance to practice fighting with time limit. I played few more games after that... which i am shamed of for playing subpar games.( due to distraction in life (family)) I will certainly post more games. Glad someone is enjoying. v/r |

I have played few games that i am very displeased and frustrated. I guess i only post games that i am pleased. What i want is a second eye on what my opponent did wrong. I have some moves of his that i think was mistake but not too many. I am sure that what i played has some shortcoming also. Seki at the end doesnt count because the game was already over. ![]() weaker player may comment also. I would like this to be interactive. Thank you. |

thank you for your comments. some i agree some i dont...but still good comments. I want to see how strong you are in actual game. do you want a malkovich game with me? I think 2 stone will be good? (i dont mind 3) let me know what you think. |

I thought you wanted a dialogue. I didn't want my comments to be a criticism or a value statement. I'm sure you are stronger than me. I just offered a review, like you asked. It would be interesting to see where we agree and disagree. Of course I make mistakes in games, which I later spot myself. |

OK - good to know. I don't think I can currently engage in a correspondence game and I don't want to frustrate your time and effort. Thanks for the invitation. |

F14 in the game ('a' below) seems too close to C10 and pushes White from behind. Cutting at the marked point instead is possible. The continuation to 10 below appeared a couple of times in the 1930's. Instead of 'a' in the game, White may have been better off with a soft approach in the upper right and leave the left for later. If White continues on the left, is something like 1 better than 'a'? White has aji at the 'b' points and Black's strong wall at the top does not have eyes if it gets cut off in the fighting. |

Too deep. only thing white can achieve is gote life and hurting everywhere. IMO. I really dont have to kill white to win. so i think bad for black. |
