In Response To: Bearing off against a nearly-busted backgame (David Levy)

Otb, I'd probably just take one off 5/off.

But 6/3 5/3 leaves blue even-ended, and the difference between 4 an 5 off is not that big.

All the other plays leave a blot, and I'm not seeing how that is better than not leaving one.

I should probably count shots, but I'm going to be lazy and just play to stah even-ended.

6/3 5/3
