"Hit/Most/6" rule spelled out

In Response To: "Hit/Most/6" rule spelled out (Taper_Mike)

Your answers appear to all be fundamentally correct; well interpreted.

The example below may help clarify the use of K for some people:

54S-63H-63H-64H-54

With Blue to play 54:

K = Bar/20* 22/18*
k = Bar/20* 8/4*

Likewise, if you change the roll to 52:

K = Bar/20*/18*
k = Bar/20* 6/4*

Both plays hit twice, including a hit on the 20pt. Hitting the second blot on the 18pt earns the capital letter because the 18pt is higher than the 4pt.

Finally, this has nothing to do with Nactation, but for those interested:

(1) Which is the better backgammon play with 54: K or k?
(2) Which is the better backgammon play with 52: K or k?
