18k v 16k with lots of mistakes 9x9

Would it please be possible to review the game - I made a series of mistakes in 3 corners, and would appreciate any comments.

Besides Legault’s excellent review here:


. . . move 3 lost one or two points. Placing a stone on a 3-3 point was conservative, but you still needed to reinforce it when White played e5 on move 4. It would have been better to play one of the adjacent 3-4 points. If you take d7, and White takes e5, then you don’t need a reinforcement anymore. You can expand your reach to g4 freely. And if you take c6, then you have more territory after White e5 and Black e6.

Really nice play for just starting!
