In Response To: Seemed Simple Enough (Bill Riles)

I make the 4 point here.

There's 1 extra shot, but getting hit is far from fatal and the cleanup (or reprime/counter-attack if hit) is way easier. Either way, white is blocked by a 5 prime. While the second blot may matter, the escape is nasty no matter what and who knows, having a second blot in the outfield could wind up being beneficial. As a small consolation, if you've danced with the first blot, you're getting cubed to 8 and you're taking and so it doesn't much matter if you get gammoned at that point.
