C[Playing this move instead of entering the corner immediately basically adds the exchange of black C6 for white C8, which is bad for Black.]

C[This is the wrong idea, I’m too worried about White building a lot of territory here. For one thing, White already had points along the edge, so move 40 only increased the area by about 10 points, and there’s much more to be gained by building up my own moyo.]

Maybe better to secure the bottom edge first by playing something like L3.]
