C[ajiadjuster: Same, but I've been inconsistent for a while now. 
ajiadjuster: Are you interested in ongoing discussion of moves and such, or are you more into review afterward (or both)?
canyonclimber: I'm fine with both!

C[ajiadjuster: Q6 seems reasonable, as you have good prospects for territory. 
ajiadjuster: I didn't have a plan yet. Just splitting your groups to create weaknesses. 
ajiadjuster: [object Object\]
canyonclimber: I was considering H6 as an alternative to Q6 but I knew both were key points
ajiadjuster: The thing about Q6 is that it doesn't threaten me at all. H6 helps you and weakens me

C[ajiadjuster: how do you read the situation at this point?
canyonclimber: I know I’m definitely in a losing situation. I have been seeing the variations you have shown me prior to moving but for some reason I keep choosing the worse option. My wedge at h7 was with hopes of creating future cutting points but it was fruitless. Now I’m either running out and letting you gain influence and territory or giving up the group which gives you a winning amount of territory

C[ajiadjuster: I don't know if this will be comforting or not, but what you describe - seeing the good move, and choosing the less good move - will never stop. I do it constantly. It's not about being perfect, but just learning to find better moves or form better habits
ajiadjuster: The reason running out quickly would have been better is that it reduces my ability to pressure your group to my advantage
canyonclimber: It’s good to know that I can at least see the move even though my reasoning/intuition isn’t there yet

ajiadjuster: what was the idea behind J10?
canyonclimber: Thought I might be able to pressure a group but I forget that I can’t attack with a weak group

C[ajiadjuster: Did you expect a certain response from me when you played J10?
canyonclimber: Not really. I figured you’d play the way you did. I guess I just wanted more cutting points or something

(;B[lj]
C[canyonclimber: I probably should just resign at this point. Would it be alright if we started a new game?
ajiadjuster: I would say poking around for cutting points can be a good strategy against weaker players or in handicap games
ajiadjuster: otherwise, I think you need a definite plan for what to do with those cutting points
ajiadjuster: sure, we can start a new game
ajiadjuster: can you see the AI review on this, or is that only visible to me?
canyonclimber: I see it
