I played game today. Even though I won the game; I feel I should have lost.

There's not a lot to say, really. Just about every move black played on top was bad, and yours were fairly good. White's result there is clearly good.

On the bottom, white played bad moves and made a weak group, but then was better at fighting. Black again played a lot of rubbish. It is difficult to review because white played much better than black and quickly won by miles - there isn't so much point looking deeply at white's moves because black's moves were the ones at fault.

If you want to gain something valuable from the game, look at the bottom right. You should have a bad feeling about living so small in the corner, and actually had a much better option. Do your best to break out into the centre or link to your outside stone, and see if you can see a better result.
