In Response To: 61P-55P-62 and 61P-66O-62 (Nack Ballard)

thanks again for these positions and detailed analyses Nack.

Stick's opening rule #8: If on the second roll your opponent rolls double 4s or double 5s and uses the entire roll to make an offensive point do not touch your back checkers on the third roll.

From his excellent Gammonvillage article "Rules of Opening Play".

can anyone write the link for Stick's opening theory please?
