Another 9-stone game against Leela
I just played this game against Leela on 9 stones and took Black. I played more carefully this time, but I still lost, though by only 6.5 points as opposed to the 40-point loss in my last game against her. Is there anything I could have done to win the game? I did try killing the top left corner to come out ahead, but to no avail. As well I wonder if playing at M4 instead of N13 would have made a difference. Much obliged in advance for your comments!

Re: Another 9-stone game against Leela
I think r16 should be at q17, blocking towards the area that gives the most potential/territory. The upper side is wide and interesting, while the area around s13 will hardly be more than something like 8 points.
