I wasn't sure how to respond.

Post by Unicorn »

There were a couple of places where I wasn't sure how to respond to what my opponent played in this game. I won the game overall and we both made some silly mistakes.

I'd love any comments.

Also, I'd like to note that I realize that 153 shouldn't work. He should just play A17. I noticed this right after I played this move and then he didn't.

Move 13: how about D6?
i think your 13 is an overplay and his cut was painful.
Move 16: should capture one stone with G4. then black's hanne dont look that good.
Move 18: terrorable. it was sufficient by playing G3
white lost almost one stone trying to save that stone...

Thanks for the comments. I think in retrospect, I agree with what Bill said. Attaching like I did in the first place was a mistake. Luckily, white gave me an opportunity after he pushed my cutting stone in the wrong direction and let me get a good position.
