Recently, I played an interesting game I am posting here for commenting on. I though I had an magnificent profit-gaining attack going on up to move 59 or so and even though my opponent managed to build a thick wall up to move 103 I was still happy with the territory I got. However, in the end, I lost miserably - I just had much too little points. I am curious about the following:
1) Was the attack up to 59 conducted correctly?
2) After white played 60, what was the proper response?
3) Even after 103, what was the proper line of play? Switch to the right side?

Here you go. I stop comments after 103

You are playing toothpaste go. Move 37 should be a cap, and maybe 59 also.

As Joaz says, you keep pushing your opponent where he wants to go.
