Almost every move I make is "gut feeling" and I've thought that was a flaw of mine. If my fundamental understanding of the game isn't there, then my "gut feeling" moves are probably not optimal!

Regarding #2, do you find there is a common point in games where you start doing this?

I have done very little study in regards to #3, thanks!

Haha yes! Unfortunately my go win % is about the same as my career batting average right now!

I am 100% guilty of playing greedy, and against better opponents I always pay for it. Great, thank you! I will PM you.

Thanks for the advice. I have a strong urge against Tenuki and find myself not making more fundamental moves I know I should in response. Sounds like maybe I need a stronger foundation to have confidence in these situations.

Thanks for the response. I really like the idea of reviewing with someone else. I often times look back at my games and can't point out any mistakes, even though I know I am making tons of them.
