;W[nq]C[I was surprised by this approach. I thought he would approach from the top at Q14 to prevent a double-wing, but I guess he was after a double-wing himself.];B[fe];W[qn];B[ql];W[on]
;C[I know I'm sacrificng my number 3 stone, and I know he will invade and try to split me. But I'm hoping maybe there's some aji left.]B[ol];W[qq]C[I guess he wanted to make sure the stone was dead. Seems like a wasted point to me, though.];B[qd]C[I thought about this for  a while. 

I felt like I needed to shut down the 3-3 invasion instead of invite it in. I also felt like the iron pillar might help stones 25 and 23 later.];W[pg]C[I knew the invasion was coming but I still didn't have a plan for it. 

In retrospect -- and immediately after the game was ove r-- the correct answer became obvious, and I felt stupid for not finding it.]

(;B[rm]C[My only answer to the 1 kyu was that I'd read it out and they weren't dead. But that's not a good enough answer. I could have made a lot more points just sacrificing them. This way I have to give white the side.];W[pl];B[qm];W[rj];B[ok];W[rk];B[om];W[qi];B[oi];W[pi];B[oj]
;W[rf]C[saving those stones wasn't worth it.];B[re]C[Aji-keshi. 

I think I was afraid of the end game, and afraid of losing my corner, but this is the middle game and not the end game. 

I was pretty sure I couldn't invade anyway, and it felt like this was a sente move that strengthened my position. I am pretty sure now I was wrong.];W[qf]
(;B[md]C[I was desperate to play here to secure my top moyo, but I wonder if I could have started building my middle moyo now and using my thickness?

I'm not much of a moyo builder, so this is new to me

I just wanted my top nailed down before I started building the middle -- probably a bad plan. But it worked out okay.];W[nn];B[mm]

(;B[ej]C["Often", a 1 kyu player at the club who is also on L19, said I was going in the wrong direction here. 

White wasn't vulnerable on the side here, and I don't need to link up to my corner. I'm not going to reduce very much here.

I was trying to widen the moyo, to put it simply, but that didn't even work. 

really, perhaps I should have looked at leaning on a few stones?];W[dj]C[Often said I was lucky that Mark didn't just tenuki];B[dk];W[ei];B[cj];W[fj]
;B[fi]C[Yeah, I know, this makes no sense. I just completely screwed this up. I'm not very good at setting up/avoiding kos. I can fight them when I have to, but making them/avoiding them efficiently -- I'm not there yet.];W[ek]C[see - I told you I messed it up.];B[gj];W[gk];B[hk];W[hj];B[gi]
