Avoiding the major oversight

One of the easiest ways to overlook the obvious, in my experience, is to seize upon a needed single die number, get it, move it, and then look around for what to do with the second number.

As an example, a 1 will obviously cover a blot and I get a x-1. I immediately cover with the 1 and then look around for an x. But perhaps x would also cover the blot and the 1 would play much better elsewhere.

Another common error for many, including me at times though I try to focus and eliminate the tendency, is to visualize, and often move, doublets as pairs rather than as singles. If you train yourself to always move them as singles you may often end up, effectively, having moved them as pairs but you may also find those occasional other situations where not moving them as pairs works immensely better.
