White 12: Wrong joseki. Black has stones in both adjacent corners,
so....

White 22: The fight which arises from white connecting 6 and
14 is a bit unreasonable. Nonetheless the connection is still
best. Up to 25 black gets an excellent position.

White 58: I had intended to play 66(A) instead, but realised
just in time that black 58 would cut me to shreds.

Black 71: I was expecting a fight here, but Hirata calmly gives
me the upper side, discards his 4 stones in the middle, and retains
his lead.

Black 83: An error - at least he is human. Hirata thought this
threatened to play to the right of 82, but it doesn't work.

White 106: Normally this move would be regarded as heavy and
very risky. But my last chance seemed to be to encourage him
to attack me and then get some sort of counter-attack going on
the stones in the left centre, But, Hirata won't fight - he doesn't
need to. Black 109 finishes his territory off. When 131 connects
all his stones securely the game is over.
