| Bide your time, and race from behind? No, thank you.
Build a prime before your opponent escapes? Not likely. Where I come from, that leaves just one game plan... Attack! Your best chance is hit and split, bringing White’s checker on the 17pt directly into your sights. Anything else simply allows your opponent to complete his prime. As things stand, White already has 16 rolls that make his bar point. After that job is complete, White should have no problems in escaping. If need be, Blue can repeatedly force White to hit him, and — sooner or later — Blue will hit back. It is, indeed, “Better to burn out, than it is to rust.” Mike |
