Life In 19x19

After your variation at 142, black chooses 2. After white 148, black plays D13. I think black will live there.

If black chooses 1 at 142, then after white 144 black plays B13. Then black has miai at B12 and B15 for a second eye (i think)


For the variation at move 53, after 62 I would have played O4, which should kill the 3 white stones, and maybe the other group as well.

It's possible I'm missing the counters, I'm always bad at checking every possible response.

Until here correct ( I think). I will sleep over it.

b63@O4 -> w64@O5, b65@P4, w66@Q2 and O2 dies. But b gets a nice squeeze at P7. So maybe w's result in the game is better.
