Chuck, you can join me in the burger bar. I posted this because gnubg preferred to clear the midpoint, which I assumed would find favour with your good self.

Sadly, the rollout doesn't validate the evaluation, which somewhat spoils the story. However, breaking the midpoint is still superior to our play.

I made the valuable nine point, then decided to hold the anchor because I keep getting dinged for running too early in mutual holding games. I played 24/16 to extricate the last man, rather that isolate it by playing 20/16(2). However, Whites stacks are awkward enough that the back man has harassment value.

The score (after 0 games) is: White 0, Blue 0 (match to 11 points)

Move number 7: Blue to play 44

White	151
Blue	166
Position ID: 4PPBAQawZ/CAIQ Match ID: cAlyAQAAAAAA

• Blue moves 24/16 13/9(2)
