In Response To: Othello Quiz #2 (Stick)

A tricky choice between the normal blizting play - making the ace & trey points, and the steady 21/11 20/10. If the latter survives the seven indirect shots, Blue has a good chance of creeping up on an efficient cube, whereas Blitz - dance would be overkill. (At this score, the takepoint is 30% + 1/2 the gammons.)

Blitzing is very tempting, and I might well play it OTB, but it looks so obvious that Quiz Factor leads me to pick 21/11 20/10.

Other plays involving a single inner board point don't seem to have the strengths of either extreme alternative.
