1 hour main time 3 handicap game vs 2k

[NoSkill]

I got very lucky in winning this game (I read it all out but he had to make a few mistakes for it to work)

I would appreciate any comments on it, I added a few of my own.

Are you actually asking for a review of the white side of a 3-stone handicap game?

Is that bad o.O?

I took a lot of time on this game, and I really messed up xD. I thought a review of this game would be good since I spent so much time thinking all the variations through (obviosuly not enough on that cut early on -.-)

I'm obviously not strong enough to review any of this, but I'd be interested to see what you guys have to say about d14 (seems a bit unfavorable for w) and r8 (armpit, feels like bad shape)

My teachers would have said it's not the best use of time. The reason is that if black plays well, white is supposed to lose. You start out at a disadvantage, and so it's difficult to say which overplay is best, for example. It's much better the other way around. Can we see a game like that?

Alternatively, I think it's okay to extract a particular board position or two where you have a question.

I think the game is fine to review. White makes a significant number of mistakes that are not specific to handicap games (e.g. o18 should be n16, 19 is bad, the top left trade is really bad for white)
