How I learn and improve my decisions about scores I dont know.

Start with Kit Woolsey's article on the five-point match. A couple of the specific positions are (according to modern bots) not quite evaluated correctly (for example, Kit says that the third position in the 2-away/3-away section is TG/T but the bots say it's just ND/T), and of course the Rockwell-Kazaross MET has slightly different numbers, but apart from these blemishes, it is still the best introduction I know to match play.
