Nice job Kirby! I doubted you when the center died, but your drive to the end is impressive .

This move feels strong to me - but I do not think I would have discovered it since it is gote.
How do you decide to make a move like this, though gote.
Ok, my next move after this was gote, but it somehow seems different.
Could you please describe this move?

Congratulations, and thank you both for playing! This game was entertaining (and hopefully useful, if I can remember a few of the specific things I learned this game). MW in particular, it's been mentioned elsewhere, but your comments are more and more useful. Kirby, I think I sent you a message the first time I saw you play a Malkovitch, but your comments have always been helpful. Keep it up, I appreciate it.

i feel that is the only move i can make in that situation. if you atari it will breakdown white influence in sente. i needed some influence to overcome 3 stone handy.
Tengen is an interesting start to a 3 stone game. But then Black follows with four moves on the third line. None of these moves is bad, but the overall result is, IMO, inconsistent. I do not think that it is enough, as a rule, just to use tengen as a ladder breaker or a stone to run to during fights. You want to use it to create a huge framework.Playing low because you have played high already does not get that done.
could be at 6, but after is big. White is threatening to make a nice framework on the bottom side. It is very hard for White to make the small extension to "a", and if extends to "b", Black can extend to "a".
is a nice play. But the fact that, even with tengen to run to, running out is not so great, shows the inconsistency of Black's play so far. I think that would be better at "a". It is harder to attack and works better with tengen.
is good, but "a" would be better, IMO, as it allows White to extend to "b".
K3 does seem better than L3, as it makes it less desirable for white to play at "b" in your last diagram. I wonder if the reason that I didn't play it is related to the inconsistency that you mention in this post.
Namely, I feel comfortable when I can easily "make a base" and have room to live on the side. Playing a stone just to split up the opponent - when I cannot guarantee a base for myself in the immediate area - is something that makes me feel, at the very least, uncomfortable.
Based on this type of feeling, I have felt that I like to play territorially - maybe you know better than I how I play.
But it's difficult for me to play many stones on the 4th line sometimes, because doing so makes it harder to form territory than playing on the 3rd line.
Any diagnosis for this, doctor?

little change of plan.. i want him to feel that side is big and try to save that one stone. then i will grab the flow and win easily.
As black, what would you play here, Magicwand? In the game I was lucky, but I wonder what the strongest way to play is.

you can not tenuki lower right. when you played a killing move..i thought it was to cover your weakness and didnt read. that was the story behind my blunder.
