Please review my game.
Hi. I thought this was one of my best games with the fewest mistakes I've made in a while, but I ended up losing by 29.5 points. I played black. (Edited. Thank you!)
Please explain what my biggest mistakes were and how I could go about fixing them. Thank you in advance.

Hi IV,
Factors to consider which side to block include:
- Which side is more profitable for Black ?
- Which side is more difficult for White ?
S15.
What's the status of W upper right corner ?
If B drops to S15, what's the status of W ?
S3.
Why ? Did you misread ?Did you consider other local moves ?
D13.
B2.
Very strange. Why ? (Common beginner mistake? )
Bad habit, and bad instinct.
What are you trying to accomplish with this stone ?
H9 (real eye); your move makes a false eye after
.
101 Basically a Pass.
104 J11.
( 103, 105, 107 ) This combination is terrible for White.
Please see Toothpaste .
111 J13.
115 Atari H14, then connect G12.
116 Connect E11.
123 Basically a Pass.
145 Very strange. Connect at o18.
See
notes.
146 Mistake.
147 Mistake. Can you find the correct local move ?
