This is a 17kyu vs 15kyu game. I lost because of timeout, but I still want to know how I did and mistakes I made,etc. Thanks in advance.

It is a bit late, so I don't have time for a full review tonight, but I will say that is the finest fuseki that I have ever seen played by a 17K.
You have problems when the fighting starts. You will get stronger if you work on on tactics, particularly connecting so that you don't get cut.

Are you a human or a bot?

Hi nj,

Learn to see ataris, double ataris.
( Generalized: aware of liberties. )If you get cut and the result is:

• good for you: you welcome the cut.
• neutral: it's neutral.
• unclear: you have to think about what to do.
• bad for you: you avoid it, prevent it, or otherwise find a solution.

It's the same for connecting up.
In general, you go through the same evaluation process.

Corollary: there's no point to connect for the sake of connecting.
You connect if the result is good for you (or, if getting cut is bad for you).
Corollary: no point to do anything in Go for the sake of it,
whether is linking up, not getting cut, cutting enemy stones, playing sente moves, etc.

Connecting, cutting, getting cut, etc. -- the tricky part is the evaluation.
( Execution can be difficult, too. )

As much as I hope I am at the level of alphago, I am just an average 17 kyu human player.

75 is a move that encourages your opponent to help himself. There is a gap on the right, and you may wish to invade it later. But your move makes it less likely you'll be able to do so.
