OTB & RO

In Response To: 31 for White (John O'Hagan)

I choose to clear the 7-point OTB. The Isight adjustments leave me ahead 67-82 after this play so hitting 6/2* looked a little too risky with the 12 immediate shots plus all 6s but 61 leaving a repeater next time. I didn't even consider the best play of 6/5 4/1 and quickly dismissed the 2nd best play of 4/1 3/2* because leaving 2 blots vs a 5-point board looked too big.

Comparing my clearing play to 6/5 4/1, we notice that my play is slightly better on the eleven 6s but clearly worse on Black's nine 5s and leaves White fewer pointers on Black's other 16 numbers. Makes sense now but I didn't notice this OTB.
