In Response To: Is this typical? (svilo)

By "this" do you mean not breaking a six-prime from the back in a trap-like situation even when the opponent has a spare on the anchor? Then my answer is yes. If the question is more subtle than that then I don't know. I'm not sure what I would play here. Generally it's good to break the bar point but 7/3 looks awkward. Maybe 8/7 8/5? Or 9/6? QF suggests 6/2 but I have trouble seeing why it could be correct.
