First Game of 2011

This is my first game at 2011. I luckily pulled out victory after a terrible start. I hope I can improve more this year and I wish you guys will do so :)

================
Oveerall, I was to eager to kill a group and abandon to play a better move which almost cost me a game. However, I was saved by white's carelessness and luckily manage to pick a victory. A lucky win. I hope I'll get better this year and can improve 1 or 2 stones. Good luck in improving your igo skill everybody \:D]
