Below are three positions, which you can view side-by-side-by-side if you stretch your window wide enough.
The first position appeared in Tim's post that kicked off this thread, where Blue owns his 13pt. In the second position, Blue has his 14pt. In the third position, Blue has his 15pt.
In Position 1, Blue should play in to his 6pt. In Position 2, the decision is essentially tied. In Position 3, Blue should cover his 1pt. Can you figure out why? If so, you will have learned (or reviewed) a valuable lesson.
