In Response To: Crawford backgame - part 2 (Ian Dunstan)

I won't next this one but I think making the 2 pt. is a little too optimistic. (and I don't mind the checker making the two is slotting the bar either, prime & crash him I say) I prefer stepping up 24/22 then 16/13 is the only real 3. Hitting is a real consideration here because if we send 3 guys back we can play 1s & 2s to step up to the 22 pt and sixes we just hop out immediately, breaking our anchor if necessary, because White has so many men back now. I still play the simple play though, keep both anchors, prepare to leap...
