Hi EdLee, thank you for your input. I really didn't expect any feedback on this game. I was just disgusted with myself, and basically gave up after 111, and posted it here as a kind of self-flagellation. Until move 112, I must have been using 1-2 seconds per move...way too fast for me to think.
I now think that I see most of the mistakes you point out. Except, b90, making a bamboo joint, and b92, making an empty triangle but closing the gap and protecting the cut, were bad moves? Also, at 22 I wanted to play L9 but I was afraid of the cut. Wouldn't that have gauged out my potential territory? The way we played I thought that I was getting about half the board. Wrong?
Also, I seem to have a habit of sometimes locking into "kill the stones" mode and overlooking my own safety until its too late. I think that I am up to about 20 games played online now (and maybe another 6-8 games/partial games with Many Faces of Go); I think that I should stop posting until I have played enough games to play more consistently. That is, I have way more theoretical knowledge than actual playing experience. So, thanks again for your help and encouragement!

No. That's not the big mistake. The big mistake is
112,
and earlier, at
108. -- Go is often not what we think.
Both
108 and
102 are almost passes.
All you needed to do is make sure your group lives. Fix the weakness at C12.
