The game was Ades, W, 11k, versus AKANE44111, B, 12k.
Your username here is glyps, which is neither. 11k and 12k are very close.
Were you Ades ? You want to think about from the audience's (forum members' ) perspective: we don't know whether you were B or W.
Just like we learn from Go, you want to also think from the other person's perspective.

Hi glyps, Ades,
You're welcome. You may want to use the Preview button to preview your post before you Submit --

@edLee
on move 19 : "Wrong shape. This allows W to connect under with (a). See var."
As this was not direcly obvious to see at my level (or at least for me
), I tryied to prove that for myself and came with the following sequence. Are they correct or am I missing something ?
$$W Wrong shape, so W can connect
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$W Wrong shape, so W can connect $$W B shape is stronger, W can't connect.
Click Here To Show Diagram Code [go]$$W B shape is stronger, W can't connect.$$W try 2 - W still can't connect

Hi oca,
In your second variation, both
and
are mistakes.
- Can you find the correct move for

- Given your wrong

Hi oca,
Your third variation is interesting. Did you consider if W resists with
at (a) ?
Locally, it does look terrible for W. But, globally, we need to look at the
group.
Can you find another move for
?
