In Response To: Slotting the bar against a single back checker (David Levy)

This kind of example has been discussed here before, e.g., here. Blue is way behind in the race and White has lots of checkers in the zone. Therefore White would like to race or attack and Blue would like to prime. Getting another checker sent back is not such a big deal for Blue since he's already so far behind in the race.
