The game was Ades, W, 11k, versus AKANE44111, B, 12k.

Your username here is glyps, which is neither. 11k and 12k are very close.

Were you Ades ? You want to think about from the audience's (forum members' ) perspective: we don't know whether you were B or W.
Just like we learn from Go, you want to also think from the other person's perspective.

Hi glyps, Ades,

When you 'quote' a post, you don't need to include the entire SGF.

Again: think from the audience's (forum members' ) perspective.

Hi glyps, Ades,

You're welcome. You may want to use the Preview button to preview your post before you Submit --
take a look at your post, look at it from the audience's perspective. (Then you probably would not include the SGF. :) )

@edLee
on move 19 : "Wrong shape. This allows W to connect under with (a). See var."

As this was not direcly obvious to see at my level (or at least for me :oops: ), I tryied to prove that for myself and came with the following sequence. Are they correct or am I missing something ?

Hi oca, Let's look at all 3 of your variations, one by one. :)

If W ataris with :w5: in your variation, did you consider :b6: and :b8: ?
Notice the :wc: string is suddenly down to only 2 liberties !

Can you find a better local move than your :w5: atari ?

Hi oca,

In your second variation, both :b4: and :w5: are mistakes.
- Can you find the correct move for :b4: ?
- Given your wrong :b4:, find a better reply for W:

Hi oca,

Your third variation is interesting. Did you consider if W resists with :w7: at (a) ?
Locally, it does look terrible for W. But, globally, we need to look at the :bc: group.
Can you find another move for :b4: ?
