With a spare on its 6pt, and an expendable 7pt to go with it, XG still has plenty of flexibility. It looks like we are out-timed. Even if we are fortunate enough not to roll a 6 while we are waiting, we will probably find it impossible to hang onto our 6pt. I think we should anticipate having a home board that extends from our 1pt to our 4pt by the time XG is squeezed off one of its rear points. For that reason, I am willing to play the 3 off the 6pt on this turn. We may still be able to make the 5pt later, but in case we cannot, I think holding the 4pt on this turn is important. 7/1, 6/3 Mike | ||||||||||||||
