[13:37] Samraku[10k]: gl hf!

[13:37] saxmaam[14k]: you too!

Move 3

[13:38] Samraku[10k]: My last Levvo Ladder game against a 20k I accidentally gave myself 62.5 komi instead of -62.5 komi. :) Thankfully, I caught the mistake and we were able to remake the game state with the correct komi

Move 4

[13:38] saxmaam[14k]: heh

Move 16

[13:41] saxmaam[14k]: poor 20k

Move 17

[13:41] Samraku[10k]: -62.5 komi actually ended being about right. I was only winning by around 20 points with komi when he resigned

Move 70

[13:55] saxmaam[14k]: thanks. misclick

Move 104

[14:01] saxmaam[14k]: yikes

Move 144

[14:14] Samraku[10k]: good game; well played

[14:14] saxmaam[14k]: thanks, got lucky

[14:14] saxmaam[14k]: exciting game though

[14:14] saxmaam[14k]: you had me on the run for half of it

[14:14] Samraku[10k]: no, you outread me and were able to use that to get ahead

[14:14] saxmaam[14k]: hopeful reading ... never certain

[14:15] Samraku[10k]: well, it worked :)

[14:15] saxmaam[14k]: anyway, thanks for the enjoyable game

[14:15] Samraku[10k]: yes, thanks for playing :)

[14:15] saxmaam[14k]: I'll report

[14:15] Samraku[10k]: ok :)

[20:35] Levvo[1k]: Variation: 1

[20:36] Levvo[1k]: Variation: I'm thinking you have some better options here.

[20:38] Levvo[1k]: Variation: A beeing high creates some issues here. I believe B looks good to attack K5 though. Your shape is abit thin to k7.

[20:38] Levvo[1k]: Variation: A is strong on its own so 1 F17 should be further. It can now for example either take the corner or expand your moyo

[20:39] Levvo[1k]: Variation: A is abit slow.

[20:40] Levvo[1k]: Variation: Hmm.. it might look slow but white has 2 weak connections here.

[20:41] Levvo[1k]: Variation: The one stone is not worth saving.

[20:41] Levvo[1k]: Variation: Here is when not playing S14 hurts.

[20:42] Levvo[1k]: Variation: I would probably feel this is enough and enter whites territory as soon as possible.

[20:44] Levvo[1k]: Variation: It feels hard at this point. No real good forcing moves to get in whites territory.

[20:44] Levvo[1k]: Variation: Losing J13 does not feel acceptable here. Instead trade white getting in for you getting in.

[20:44] Levvo[1k]: Variation: Defend further in so you can surround easier.

[20:48] Levvo[1k]: Variation: Maybe something like this?

[20:49] Levvo[1k]: Variation: Got lucky here =) .. Won you the game I believe!
