In Response To: RO: Balancing risk vs Opp's 5-point board (David Levy)

The way I try to learn from these positions is to vary the position. First, though it's unlikely to matter much, change the score to DMP. Then the variants I would try would start with:

1. Try moving the spare on Blue's 3pt somewhere else.

2. Vary the positions of Blue's outfield blots, changing the roll if necessary.

3. Vary the state of White's board.
