In Response To: Interesting 3-2 (Fabrice Liardet)

It's funny that nobody else seems to have voted for 7/4 6/4. For me it's the play that jumps out as candidate #1. That's not to say that it's right, but having that four-point board is extremely strong. Say the opponent jumps out with a hit. I'm unhappy, but I'm not too worried. As long as there's still contact, that four-point board will be waiting to greet any future hit checkers. It's true that the five-away point is useful for priming, but it's not so useful that I'm afraid to break it in exchange for the 4pt. I don't quite understand why other people don't see the same tradeoff and seem to be treating our containment project as an one-shot deal.

It'll be interesting to see if the rollout indicates I'm way off base or not.
