w17 (C7). Play C8 from now in a similar position. You will understand why, when you get stronger.
Amsterdam, soon.

:w9: is the first move I didn't like.

I will also add that I thought you were very rude to him for most of the first half of the game. Repeatedly accusing him of cheating, and then beating him convincingly despite the handicap stones seems very ... unpleasant of you (considering his rank clearly isn't that far off).

Yeah, I agree. First bad move was not learning manners!

Agreed. When I was 23k I knew that joseki he played, but I didn't understand it or know what to do with it. I think it was the first joseki I encountered.
