Neil replies: "If you become a bit less lazy with critical and likely game winning shots like this, you'll play better and likely more enjoyable brand of BG. After making the 5 pt, look at the position and tell me what White can roll to give him a decent take?

I'll bet it is only 22 and then Blue is still fav. But after running from the anchor, White can hit with 54 and advance with 44 and 22 after which it is clear White is far from a pass and you needn't consider any further since this is 4 rolls rather than 1 to clearly keep White in the game"
