In Response To: No good at retro BG! (Taper_Mike)

43Z-21X-61U-62N-54@-63Z-55
Position ID: mNvBASHgc+EBAw Match ID: cIkWAAAAAAAA

Move	Blue	White
1	43Z (Reverse split) = 24/21, 13/9	21X (Hit and split) = 24/23, 6/4*
2	61U (Up) = bar/18	62N (Near) = 13/7*, 6/4
3	54@ (Anchor) = bar/20, 24/20	63Z (Reverse split) = 23/20, 13/7
4	55

My bias against 43Z prevented me from discarding 32S as the opening move. After I convinced myself that 32S-21X and 32S-52H would not work, and that no other 2 had been played on the second roll, I finally gave 43Z a serious go. This sequence may or may not be the one Timothy played, but it is “well-played” in that all moves are within 0.02 of best. Mike
