First of all, nice game :) congrats on that win!
Secondly, I'm on the edge of DDK/SDK, so take my opinion with a huge grain of salt. Or dismiss it entirely :lol:
Or rather, I'll put them in questions, so maybe it's just food for thought and we can both learn from it!

1) :w38: jumping this stone out now will result in black making a wall towards his other wall. This'll pretty much solidify a big chunck of territory. Maybe this is not the proper timing to save that one stone? While you're getting 1 stone out, black is making a lot of points. Maybe it's better to take another big point first. That one stone will still be there later on. Or else black will need four stones to capture it, ;)

2) Is white 128 the biggest move on the board?

3) Is white 196 necessary?

Was a fun game to look over, though. Black making life on the upper side was a fairly impossible task, I have to say :)

If move 157 was O5, then 158 O6, won't I have a shortage of liberties? before this huge chunk died?

At move 231, can you find a move that is 100 points better than the one you played? :)
