In Response To: Is this a "next"? (Nack Ballard)

Before addressing the matchscore effects, I see four plays/approaches:

20(2) -- defensive building.

5(2) -- offensive building.

21/14* -- gains most in the race while risking little in the race.

13/10*, 6/2* -- blitzish with large volatility, i.e. gains big when it works and loses big when it fails. Note the important "10 in the zone".

GS -- advanced anchors are huge at this score: 20(2)

GG -- gammon wins are huge at this score: 13/10*, 6/2*

DMP -- racing is good at this score: 21/14*

$ -- try to win; try to win gammons; try to avoid gammon losses; get to an efficient cube; keep your opponent from an efficient cube; so many goals! Outboarded argues against being too aggressive but racing is good and hitting almost always prevents opp from making a new offensive point -- something White is in decent position to do here. 21/14*
