In Response To: DQ: Consider the bar point? (leobueno)

If it was an unlimited game, I would definitely like to make the golden point by playing 11/5, 8/5. With regard to this position combined with this special score of 2a3a, an alternative move appears attractive as well, namely: 24/18, 13/10. At the score of 2a3a, aspects of safetey are very important. Anchoring reduces the risk of losing a gammon considerably, and it opens up opportunities of playing boldly. The barpoint is a very good defensive anchor.
24/18, 13/10
