In Response To: Ya gotta finish the job (Chuck Bower)

the primitive 20-13. Why? It's clear we win the race so we only want to avoid being hit. Assume white comes in. We either roll a big number (>8) so we jump over it or a small we can play in our board. With 7 we might hit (if the board is still o.k.) or play in the board. If we have played down a checker we can hit-and-run. Giving white opportunities to come back in the game (13-11,13-8) seems to risk to much for to few....
