I will start going through the match between myself & Weaver now that I think all of the rollouts are done. I will upload the entire match and make it available to all soon. Those who have Snowie will have my comments & rollouts included, GNU users, sorry...you'll get the match though.

I already posted this position and everyone who replied unfortunately made my play. (if you aren't accustomed to Snowie the yellow part is what was played) Like most of you I could see three deuces I like, 24/22 was forced, 13/11(2), then I was stuck. I'd preferred only playing 3 of them, maybe should have tried that and picked up my dice? lol. After I couldn't swallow 6/4 as the last deuce I resorted to looking at other plays.

Hitting both was overrunning the position I felt. If Paul enters just one checker I have no clue how I'm going to bring this home unless I get real lucky during my attack or escape, obviously not the best route to take when you say "if I get real lucky I can ...". That left me with the play I made. It didn't seem to leave me too wide open, shifting from the 4 to the 2, but I guess it does. Moving 6/4 does take the builder away from the five point but can be used to attack his checkers which are currently on the ace and deuce points. It also makes the 11 pt. pressuring the 5 pt. if he steps up. I still have a tough time stomaching the best play.
