(After looking those terms up, since I cannot pretend to know anything about Go)

I believe you have fallen victim to one of the classic blunders with
regards to Issola.

An Issola who has learned the game throroughly will no doubt play
honte, right up until the point where it is appropriate to play
hamete.  And will then surprise you.
