Please review this game I think I made some mistakes in the middle game. but I can't find them. Also just a curious question but what rank do you think my opponent was. I mean he was registered as tygem 15kyu but I think he was stronger than that.

Are you black or white?

I posted your game for convenience:



P.S. I assume you are black, since white won. Quick remarks:

:b27: learn to read ladders.

:b39: this move is almost useless. It doesn't attack White, doesn't make territory, and Black doesn't need to defend for the moment.

:b43: in general you should avoid empty triangles, unless you have a very good reason for that.

:b67: unnecessary. White is already captured.

:b77: at R8 probably safer.

:b81: at S5 would have kept your stones connected.

:black: 109: you capture a few stones but the corner is more important.

Hard to tell but looks much stronger than 15 kyu. I guess stronger than 10 kyu but I am not sure since the game wasn't really challenging for him.

Hard to say from only one game, but my guess is that white is 10-12k.

Thanks for the advice. on move 9 I copied leela zero and alphago as they usually do it and I had played against leela zero and did that move alot of times so I felt fairly confident in it. and that ladder I didn't read it out and it was a bad mistake.

the cut at 57 was due to me not knowing which move to do next :D

Others may disagree, but as a general rule, I try not to cut unless I can clearly see that the result will be advantageous.

To be honest, I'd do the same if I could, but my reading ability is not good enough to read enough to see if it'd be advantageous. plus I am still in the stage of knowing why a move is a good move except some obviouly good moves.
