I edited your post. When you make the attachment and preview and/or submit, you can right click on it and copy the link there. Use that link in your SGF file.

I personally prefer to manually enter the SGF, but I guess that takes more work.

Could you elaborate why you resigned? You were leading by more than 100 points...

This may the the root problem - whether in go games or diagrams thereof.

You played better than he did. Why are you giving up on yourself?

Like I said. It didn't feel like I was winning or even playing well.

Hi Ken, Don't give up. Don't give up on Go or SGF tags. Most importantly, don't give up on yourself. :-|

Kirby, thanks. The result is probably still OK for B, and W lives in the corner. Maybe there's a better sequence to kill W completely ?

So maybe :b2:, above is not great, but it hurts to play another type of move...

Anyway, if we can ignore that, I think with this shape, as in the game, the hane feels promising:

So I think the shape might be killable normally, but I don't like the aji on the outside. Maybe there's a killing sequence I am missing, but it seems difficult.

For that reason, I like the result of the suggestion you proposed:
