What and impress me with the WHY

In Response To: What and impress me with the WHY (Stick)

After running, I know how white is going to play all rolls that don't contain a 4 or 5 along with 4-4 & 5-5. I'm not sure how white is going to play the other 18 rolls. I think those other rolls are the key to the position. If white can profitably hit loose with some of the rolls containing 4 & 5, I'm afraid that running (which is my instinctive choice) gives away too much. Blue won’t be able to realize the race lead often enough to make up for the loss on the POH shakes. I will guess that white can hit on a number of these rolls and so I keep my anchor and play 6-2, 6-3.

If I'm playing an opponent who I know won't hit loose, then I run.
