Hi guys, After rising pretty quickly i've gotten stuck on the 2kyu lvl on kgs, i've lost a bit of motivation and need new ways to learn, and here I am. Here is a match i just played on kgs against a 1kyu, started off easy, then got a bit too complicated for me. Better ways to play this fight? did win the fight but closer than i'd liked. If u have input on earlier moves those are appreciated as well.
edit: i know j18 and all that after the fight is a wasted move, just placed anyway since match is won

Nice kill! 
The only big problem that I see was move 19: you were in the midst of enemy territory, so you need to fight for eye space in the corner with R3, not R5.

Re: 2kv1k on kgs
yeah i was unsure off how to approach that. usually with a kobayashi shape like he had, approaching on the o line is better, but since he also had j3 i wasn't too sure. o3 probably would've been a better approach.
r3 might be better than r5, but was more scared of his potential on the right side of the board than i was bottom. Me getting some strength on the right also makes his q10 r14 stones weaker. idk.
