In Response To: Always the 5pt (Keene)

I made the 5pt, well aware of the consequences of my opponent anchoring on the 2pt. I decided that I wanted to buy enough time to fully eject my last checkers, and also even if I get hit right back, then it may not be a premium hit, and I could always retake control of the outfield.

It worked out well enough, my opponent fanned, and I quickly pointed on the 2pt to make it a 5pt board, and won the match with a gammon.
