In Response To: 1&3 Backgame #2 (Ian Dunstan)

I'm not sure whether to trust XG and GNU on this one. They probably play this position O.K.

I would try 24/23 13/11. 24/23 is to give myself more flexibility, e.g., to jump out with a 5 or to anchor on the 23pt if the dice dictate it. Then the midpoint seems to me to be the most expendable point.
