That's a lot better than most DDK can do. This most recent game is also higher than that level. Well done. Consider creating a new account.

At B103, why peep when you can cut at K3?

I try to avoid cuts as much as I can because I am not good with cuts. I went with a peep because I thought it would be better from my point of view. Most of them moves were by instinct except the middle game.

Remarkable progress. If I counted correctly, in your last game you were behind by no more than 10 points.

Since I completed 1001 L&D problems, I am currently doing Graded go problems for beginner volume 4. Currently done 116 problems got 32 wrong.

Did 1 game against leela zero I am starting to predict leela zero's moves now but still losing very bad but it's giving me a idea of what moves to play in a game if the sequence comes up.

replayed 10 alphago games.

did 2 games against humans won the 2.

Completed lee changho tesuji problems.

went through attack and defense.

Could you analyze Attack & Defence with LZ? That's high on my to-do-list.

I am doing graded go problems for volume 4 now. Done 208 problems got 49 wrong.

Did 1 game against leela zero. I am starting to use it's moves in game.

Replayed 10 alphago games.

Did 2 games against humans won 2 again.

Since I've completed lee changho tesuji problems volume 1, I am currently doing lee changho tesuji problems volume 2.

I am currently going through The direction of play.

here is one of the games I won. I was white.

Considering the speed and the number of right answers concerning 1001 L&D, GGPB 3 & 4, I highly doubt you were beginner/17 kyu just 5 days ago I think you underestimated yourself there.
Your performances at those L&D are SDK level, and I think even a strong SDK at that.
I'm bad at guessing a level seeing a game, but your play doesn't remind me of typical 15 kyus either. So you're making quick progress, but - like I said - I don't think you were 17 kyu, unless you're gaining one stone strength a day.

Quite a dedication, though, congratulations. You must be spending a lot of time studying, and it's certainly paying off, seems like!

I am starting to wonder if Darknessmoves is a human or a robot...

Just don't burn yourself out, you're showing remarkable progress.

I mean, 5 days ago your level was about 15k, and now even LeelaZero can't find any bad moves. That's amazing progress.

Goes to show how much the right way of learning and the best teachers matter from the very beginning. Still on the edge about whether they are right and best in his case, but it's hard to argue they are not effective.
