In Response To: Realgammon role (Leonardo Jerkovic)

Not a very good roll. 20/15 11/8 looks too stacked up to be right. 20/15 6/3 is better even though it puts a dilly builder on the 3-point. You're still way up in the race and this play leaves you with a reasonable distribution. 6/1x 13/10 leaves 5 blots which would be disasterous after a bad sequence. Or you could try 6/1x 8/5. I think I like this best since it gives you a good chance to make your 5-point even if your blot on the ace gets hit. 2nd choice is 20/15 6/3.
