Pontiac "And why XG prefer to slot 2 blots and give freely play chance to opp?"

The KEY point is that by slotting 2 points in THIS position where you have made points as a backstop behind the slot and where almost anything you throw that hits the opp next turn can cover one of the slots and creating a position that is soon great for containment is that the double slot DOESN'T allow the opp to play freely.

Sorry for caps..but just trying to help you understand this position better.
