Game theory article from a professional Starcraft player/caster.

That was awesome, sir. I love the attention to details in the scenario you described and your analysis. I only picked up the hobby of watching Starcraft about 6 months ago (I watch more Broodwar than Starcraft II), but I used to play a lot, albeit at an amateur level. I watched popular casters like diggity, Klazart, Nuke, and moletrap. However, sometimes I don't quite understand why the winner wins even though I have consumed a lot of theories in advance, perhaps for the exact reason you just pointed out. There are good comments on Team Liquid every now and then but the site is hard to browse with 100 pages on average for a popular game.

Do you write game analysis like this somewhere, or do you know where I can read something similar?

Day[9] (the author of the original essay), is easily the "go to" place for this sort of thing. He has a great amount of analysis scattered throughout his dailies, but here is a link to his most recent daily focusing on "how did I lose" (assuming I remember this daily correctly).

Also,

has a good list of his videos, with their subject, etc.
