You went wrong with the 2nd pick imo. I like 692 right. You make the 5210 your first objective. Gives you the ore you need and evens out your wood/brick ratio. This also blocks 2510 from your opponent which is important since ore is really valuable. This does concede the 4511 but you will get 4810. Very unlikely that your opponent will get both these spots. Ports do have value but production is more valuable than ports in 1v1. As first, I would have even considered 6311 left. I wouldn't normally consider a low pip as first but the expansions are really good and you are guaranteed a wood/brick spot on the way back. Not sure if this is actually correct. I'd have to analyse the board more closely to see if there is refutation.
