I hope I am uploading this correctly. I just got his massive wall and could still invade his territory, he just passed a bunch and let it happen. Am I missing something?
You could just copy/paste the link to the game here (if it’s a game played on OGS).
The link is what is in the adress bar in your browser when you are watching the game.
It must be this one.

Your opponent was probably a lot stronger than you are currently.
You had a big wall, which could further invade.
The problem is that is only has one real Eye and is completely surrounded.
You can still poke more into blacks territory, but you stones will still be removed at the end if they don’t have two eyes/ can’t be captured.
Your opponent understood this and passed. The server at some points can stop games if the outcome is really one sided.
There is a discussion about it somewhere in this forum.

You seem to understand well what to do like cutting connecting running out or capturing … The problem is that many times you don’t put your stone where something could work. The AI suggested moves are in fact really interesting for you (as long as you can understand them of course)
Because of these multiple mistakes it’s hard to debate about more strategical ideas. First you should better check if your move is working as you intend. You didn’t think long before playing C10 but avoiding useless and damaging moves will surely give you a jump of levels.
After G14 black can still capture the 3 white stones. I don’t think this is something you agreed with when playing G14.
Just some examples.
Some moves are too slow like F18 or C18 or G19. The 2 black stones are already captured. Sometimes it’s tempting to make a situation more clear by adding a stone for ensuring life or capturing or connecting… But this is good only if necessary, you don’t have time for that if not. Here at best you could extend your territory to the right but still a bit slow as black can’t kill your stones here.
