;B[bd]
;W[id]LB[eg:a]C[White should push at 'a' first. If he won't play there then I should, it would have changed the balance of power on the left side dramatically]
;B[qj]	;W[eg]	;B[dh]	;W[eh]
;B[di]LB[dc:a]C[Too passive I think. Better to treat d11 and 'a' as miai I think (I've seen 'a' as a defense in pro games before to avoid passively connecting)]
;W[ei]
;B[cj]C[Soooooo slooooow. What am I doing?]
;W[ql]	;B[oj]	;W[mc]
;B[jd]C[I think the idea was good but the followup bad.]

;W[ic]LB[jf:a][dc:b]C[Should be light with 'a' I think. It's not as though W is profiting that much since I have 'b' later]
;B[je]	;W[jc]
;B[ie]C[Heavy, though perhaps it's ok right now]
;W[me]	;B[jh]	;W[oe]	;B[pe]	;W[pf]	;B[qf]	;W[pd]	;B[qe]	;W[od]	;B[pc]
;W[pg]LB[qh:a]C[I have never seen such a powerful example of what happens from ommiting a single move as what happens next in this game. By not playing 'a' my entire position absolutely unravells since I go from one weak group to two weak groups.]
;B[hq]
;W[qg]C[This wasn't sente, why did I think it was sente against my corner? I suppose this is the second huge mistake which together prove fatal.

'a' is the best alternative I can find. The splitting attack at 'b' is still painful, but when black plays 'c' black is a move ahead of the way it went in game - the game is unfavorable either way, but maybe black can survive this way.]LB[jj:a][mj:b][ol:c]
;B[nc]	;W[mj]	;B[ol]
;W[qm]LB[jj:a]C[Two weak groups just isn't managable. 'a' and go back for the aji later I think, plus probes / invasions of the corner using the stones as a threat]
;B[mk]	;W[lk]	;B[ml]	;W[lj]	;B[ij]
;W[hp]C[I can't believe I seriously answered this. "You know your position is bad when you can't find a way to signficantly improve it even with sente". Educational experience, but might as well have resigned.]
;B[gp]	;W[ho]	;B[iq]	;W[jq]
;B[jn]LB[jo:a][jl:b]C[Trying for white 'a', black 'b'. Wishful thinking \:(]

;W[jl]LB[ip:a]C[I think maybe I should have pushed through with 'a' immediately, since nothing short of major chaos will get black out of this.]
;B[km]	;W[im]	;B[gd]	;W[pk]	;B[no]	;W[jo]	;B[oq]	;W[or]	;B[nr]	;W[op]

;B[nm]C[Even living in sente would not be enough to turn the game around. Eventually the entire k12 group died and black lost by resign.]
