In Response To: A pretty one (pierrez)

The "obvious" play is to POH on the three point. But closed out on the bar with 12 off is something like 85% GWC for white, so it might make more sense to play to pick up a second checker.

6/3* 1/off saves gammon and gives blue a chance to pick up a second checker by recirculating. Is this better than ~15%? Maybe, maybe not, but seems like it's worth a try.
