In Response To: DMP 21 (John O'Hagan)

The difficulty here is that simply hitting is not enough, because even if we hit, and then again, and then again, we are still losing the race by a lot. So we need a better defensive position and build our board.

I think you are right that 8/5 or 8/6 4/3 are technically best, but OTB I would be tempted to play 13/11 in the hope of getting hit and making a second anchor. In any case, 13/11 is more likely to draw a misplay than simply building the position. What ace to go with 13/11? I'd probably play 13/11 4/3 because the spare on the 4 belongs on the 3, but something could be said for 16/15 to step in the way of a 66.

So I'd play 8/5 for PR, and against many/most human players 13/11 4/3 for the win, hoping for misplays.
