For those of you who don't know Jake Jacobs, he has a far more interesting paradox.

You can make Play A, which is the correct play statistically, or you can make Play B, which is the play that was made in the 1986 world championships which cost Bill the match, and later on in the day a group of us were sitting around at a bar where there was an amazing blond serving Heinekin and that's when Taki got hooked on Heinekin and he has been playing his 6-2 that way ever since.

So do you make the right play, or the one that comes with the good story?
