In Response To: Hitting all you can hit while the hitting is good (ah_clem)

And looking at the bot results, there are five ways to whack two, not the three that I considered. Your occasional reminder to play small doubles slowly.

Wise reminder of wise words.

The other day, I assigned a reply to an opening Nackgammon move (see below). I asked the rollateer if he'd like to predict which play is best with the roll of 41 before he rolled it out.

He wrote back saying that he would "hit two." It didn't seem like he was joking, but there are four different ways to hit two checkers, even with this non-doublet.

[I've been writing a large book, and as part of it I have an ongoing rollout project (mostly backgammon third roll doublets positions at this juncture). If anyone is interested in participating, please e-mail me, FB-messenger me, or respond here.]
