Two plays worth considering are R-14 and Q-14. Black is thin here. These plays look to renewing the attack on the White group.

Ah, I got the colors wrong. White missed an opportunity to kill.

Another game against a 6 kyu, which I should have lost.. (I won with 1.5)

You: I think the middle game fight in the middle and my invasion at R8 could have costed me the game.
KW: your invasion at R8 was perfect
Your soft treatment of his invasion at the bottom made the game even again or perhaps better for Black.
The centre fighting was decisive: as said, try strengthening your weakest stones first in crosscut fights (but read all options too)

I am playing in Fox Go server since it's pretty much easier to find games and i liked the interface!
Here is my last game, I was white and won by 6.5.

Hi PlaySlow,
Maybe M3 more natural.
Shape problems.
Maybe jump; B cannot wedge.
Maybe unclear which direction is most profitable.
Realize the floating B stones are already a burden for B --
there's no hurry. Tenuki and take a big point;
decide later if/when/how to attack.
( Mostly because it seems the bottom is not very profitable --
so many 3rd like stones already -- how much can you gain there ? )
You induce B to go toward the top, where there's potential.
Why not C8 ?
B7.
D5.
B5.
E17.
Locally, K6 kosumi aims at N6 follow-up.
B gets a local shared point.
Agree with your note; I'd also take 3rd line.
How about N10 ?
Agree with your note; fix your shape directly.
You should've read
more ...
...
is at a funny place.

Hello all, I just wanted to inform you about the latest situation about me & go. Since I began my new workplace on August 15th, I have played only one day, 6 games. I have managed to reach 6 kyu but didnot solve any tsumego since that time. Work has been hectic since then.
I'll try to spare some time starting from this week on!

More games and some questions about a game I've won on foxy. I think I've screwed a bit on the joseki on the left bottom.

Thanks for the great review Knotwilg. Two lessons noted; 1st is I'm too obsessed about shape points and ignore all the other moves when I see a potential tiger's mouth. Second one is to remember playing near to my weakest group in a fight.

Instead of 27 in the game or your alternative, try 2 below...
