Hi people,

I never asked a review before, so I don't know what is the correct etiquette. What kind of game should I choose?

Well, this is my last game that I lost, against a stronger player. I used a lot of plays (like the high one-point extension from the 4-4 points) for the first time, so this game was very experimental, and I failed terribly.

What I would like is any, absolutely ANY, idea from stronger players. What moves were totally newbie? It's not necessary an analysis of the two killed groups (left-bottom and right-bottom), I already understand what gone wrong.

Thank you very much!

Good question. Some ideas:
All serious games (games where you thought about each move carefully; not blitz games) --
- Games where you had no idea what was happening, or what you did wrong, or how you lost.
- Games you thought you were winning, but lost.
- Games you felt you were behind the whole time.
- Close games (where you fought hard the whole time; or, crazy big fights but ended with a close score).
- Games you thought you played well (the reviews may surprise you).
- Games you thought you played badly (the reviews may surprise you! :))

EdLee, thanks for all your advices! I will consider them in the next time!

emeraldemon, wow a lot of variations! :study: I'll study them carefully, thank you very much!

PS about move 40: It was an experiment, had I followed my instinct I would've played E3. Funny that it's the most vivid move in my memory of this game because I tried hard to do something counter-intuitive, like "let's build a wall here and see what happens".
About move 52: Should be B4.
