You all are welcome...but actually I've been a bit disappointed in myself for recently slacking off in commenting.

Thanks for playing, guys. I was actually not sure who was ahead as of the last couple of moves, so it would have been fun to see how things played out.

Still, good game.

Arrgggggg! I can't belive that I missed that. I saw that 2 was forcing so I terminated the search on that branch without looking further. Move 7 is such a nice bonus.

Sure. I'd like to hear opinions on four things:
1) The upper right when W wedged
2) The lower left
3) T8 vs B2
4) Did I miss a kill on the left? ( Jedo's suggestion looks dangerous )

1) what drmwc said..
i was surprised to see that you answere other way.

2) i think below move is the best move: (best being safest way to win)
if you count correctly on below position.. you will realize that black can not lose this game.

3) T8 appears to be bigger and simpler.
i made that choice after careful calculation of my lead.

4) yes you did missed the kill (i missed the kill initially)
i explained correct kill move if you go back and see my thread.

i was behind until you invested many moves on my left group and i tenukied to earn more points on top.
3 stones are big handycap.. even if you lose local fight you still have many chances to win.
i recommend SDKs not to give up on handycap game after big mistake. if you keep your cool then you will have good chance of winning.

I got a chance to attend a lecture by Evan Cho, a 7D amateur from Korea. He commented on games that we played. I showed him this game. The SGF below has his comments, as best I can remember them.

thank u for that comments
although i dont agree with all his comments but generally great comments.

moves like 121 was played with many minutes of thinking..
there is reason why i played that move.
if i played as he said i would lose on points.
not fair for him to judge by spending few sec on thaT MOVE
