In Response To: A botched 2-1 (KenB)

I'd anchor up rather than hitting. Since white has a third checker back blue has more timing despite the nearly level pipcount. If whit fails to roll a six she'll be forced to break the prime and then blue should be able to leap out without much difficulty.

That said, the hit is tempting. Maybe it would be right at GG?

After bar/23 the ace seems like a "pick-em" decision. I'll leave the blot on the midpoint so that 65 doesn't leap over my checkers. Not sure about that. Or eschewing the hit for that matter.

bar/23 10/9
