In Response To: Position NOT from LV (Matt Cohn-Geier)

Hyperpips are concept that comes from Danny Kleinman. They are the average number of pips that the checker on the bar rates to lose by dancing.

This is not a concept that I use whatsoever. I prefer to learn positions and to try to see what is going on. It is true that Blue has wastage and that that the 3 hole could be an issue, but Blue can usually place his checkers in good spots coming around and unlike the situation with a high pt open, White has no joker entering double to steal the game in 1 shot.

I'll concede 2pt here to most opps, noting I am most unsure whether it is technically a take.
