Move 4
Pagog0[10k]: I look forward to it :)
Move 9
Senokir[1d]: I have a secret goal for fun so I may pause at random times for a short time. Feel free to go as you need to
Move 11
Pagog0[10k]: sounds good!
Move 79
Senokir[1d]: It's not a bad idea. I don't think there was a move to clean everything up perfectly. You had weaknesses on both sides which is never easy to deal with.
Move 84
Senokir[1d]: Looks like you've broken out of the rut. Lots of wins since your game with Herv
Pagog0[9k]: Yeah im feeling back in form a bit
Move 128
Pagog0[9k]: sigh
Pagog0[9k]: time for L+2 memory/reading
Senokir[1d]: Lmao
Senokir[1d]: Tsumego test
Senokir[1d]: It'll come up so often that you won't have to think anymore
Pagog0[9k]: i knew it would happen at some point
Senokir[1d]: It's good that you recognize it as L+2 though. That way you can remember it easier in the future
Senokir[1d]: Without a name it becomes much harder to learn
Pagog0[9k]: Early on Octo shared a 30 min video on L+2
Move 129
Senokir[1d]: That is one of the correct answers
Move 130
Pagog0[9k]: phew!
Senokir[1d]: I would also accept B19 :)
Senokir[1d]: I don't see why A18 wouldn't work too although I think it might be slightly worse
Move 191
Pagog0[9k]: NO
Senokir[1d]: Lol, nice catch
Senokir[1d]: Taking the ko would be slightly better but that works too
Move 223
Senokir[1d]: Made you look
Move 224
Pagog0[9k]: lol
Pagog0[9k]: we filling dame or no?
Senokir[1d]: Up to you. Doesn't matter since Japanese
Move 226
Pagog0[9k]: gg gg
Senokir[1d]: Gg
Senokir[1d]: Wp
Senokir[1d]: I failed to keep it under 5 points :( it was really hard. I counted like 100-150 times probably
Pagog0[9k]: oh you were taking it easy/trying to win by a thin margin?
Senokir[1d]: Variation: Pretty much non-negotiable.
Senokir[1d]: I was pulling some punches but I wasn't playing bad moves. Just not punishing as much as possible
Senokir[1d]: Variation: You can protect the A cut or the B cut. You protected B.
Senokir[1d]: Variation: But if you protect A, does B look scary?
Senokir[1d]: Variation: I know the bot is pointing it out but this is pretty important too. It saves your whole corner
Senokir[1d]: The connection at R4 that is. Don't mind the rest of the bot variation
Senokir[1d]: Overall you played really well though. The main thing I wanted to point out as a lesson to take away was the first variation I posted. In that shape, when they push on top you have to have a VERY good reason to not extend.
Senokir[1d]: It went from you having territory on top, corner not surrounded. To a sad little L2 while white is the one with territory on top and a ponuki even so the shape is impossible to fight
Senokir[1d]: L+2*
Senokir[1d]: I can nitpick more if you'd like a more thorough review. Or you can feel free to hand it off to Octo or whoever else for review.
Senokir[1d]: I find that trying to find a few lessons to take away at most is pretty effective though
Senokir[1d]: I'll also generally add that you were too focused on building the center territory in the top right. Even from the moment I shoulder hit at Q7. Instead of responding normally on the third line and just taking the territory on the side, you chose the territory in the center. I could have reduced that territory more severely but you probably noticed even without me really pressing into it, you have to play sooo many moves to defend center territory and it often winds up smaller than you hope.
Pagog0[9k]: no i appreciate the feedback ty. I will for sure have octo review this one though
