Greetings
I installed IGS in my computer because my tablet is out service. I am fascisnated with it. One guy 8d+ challenged me and this is the game.
Can anyone say me some comment of moves? I don't know what I did bad in the right corner in the first moves...

playing kosumi at P15 would have been easier.

with so few white stones elsewhere on the board, not losing sente here is quite important.

Hi Darsey,
If your KGS 5k is fairly stable, then your IGS 10k is a bit underrated.

Not very good (but not a game mistake).

Not very good (but not a game mistake; inefficient with K16 ).

P15 or o16 quite natural feeling. Get out, split W.
R17 is good if your plan was "to kill everything".
But not very good if you were just trying to keep your corner.

Fighting spirit is good.

...?!

Bad shape in gote. Pass.
So many nice moves on the board: Q8, C13, C5.
The problem here is you missed the big picture.

P8 bigger ?

Soft. Double hane o8.

Soft. Hane N8.

If you simply connect at C16,
you wouldn't end up with the dumpling at

... ?

A few comments.
Things to focus on.
- Keep White weak.
Keep White separated.
Keep White confined.
Oh, also count dame.
