Those who have played more than a little Nackgammon come to understand that making/covering an outside point is frequently preferable to making an anchor. The above position (rolled out by Stick), with three checkers back on each side, is about halfway between an early backgammon (two back) and early Nackgammon (four back) structure.
Altering the position by 2 pips such that White has a spare on her 6pt (instead of 8pt) makes a sizable difference that results in a very close checker decision. Refer to the variant below.
