Well, I made a mistake. I am not alive with my group on the left. The problem is, now that I made this last exchange, I cannot make two eyes locally anyway. I am in trouble, now...

So my only chance is to make his group weak, too, so that I can hopefully make life. If not, I lose. If I live, I might have a chance, but I will probably die.

I guess it's this or nothing.

Mistakes really affect you in go...

i think what i played is correct.
when you have a chance to kill you must count. do i wanna try to kill this group?
if you have any doubt and you try to look for a way by not killing it.
i think i can kill it but i am not sure. my group is too weak for me to kill it clean.
if he let me live i am perfectly satisifed with that.

Is magicwand's confidence appropriate? This is a lot of points on the left for black. White can't defend both sides of his central territory in one move, can he? By my reckoning black is about 20 points ahead. What am I missing?

Well, I am behind a bit now. I didn't expect him to sacrifice his stones, but now he gets a lot of center points. It's OK, though. The game is still within reach. I have to play endgame well, though.

I wanted to ignore, but I couldn't find a way to make it work:

After :w11: above, I couldn't figure out a way to escape and get his stones. I thought for awhile about it, but I couldn't make it work.

Now I think I am probably about 10 points behind. I wonder if I can play endgame well enough to make up for this.

i am ahead more than 10 points so the game is over.
way i played is simple and gives him no chance to comeback.
