Life In 19x19

I almost beat someone a few ranks above me! Was an exciting game, for sure.



EDIT: Our ranks are incorrect on the SGF. I'm 15k and they're 11 kyu.

Any reason for playing A17?

The score estimator was making me paranoid Not a good reason, no.

is not a bad point, but take a look at the board after move 54, ask yourself which stones on the board are weak, and see if you can find a more important place to play...

Also, Q18 was not needed. Without it you would have won by half a point.
