my thinking is that there are two main plays...making the 4 point or 22-16 13-8, making the four point gives me a 5 point board with white having 2 checkers on the bar...not a bad position at all......when does making the 4 point become a problem?... when the blitz fails......making the 4 point is a committment play that starts to stink when our blitz fails due to whites ownership of the cube and the 4 and 11 points.....if we play 22-16 13-8 we create a backup plan in the event of a failed blitz...so i def play 22-16 13-8, besides there are more gammons also with this play as well:)
