In Response To: How good is the outside prime? (Rich Munitz)

If my 2 pt was allready split it would be better to leave the 2 blots here since making the ace pt leaves a 3 wide gap that needs to be filled (honestly I wouldn't have been sure, but this rollout is clear (note XG 3 ply made the correct play here also.)

But with the 2 pt made I only need to fill in the 3 and 4 pts to basically ice the game. XG 3 ply eval thinks it is a big mistake (I would have felt a Whopper) to break the 2 pt, but the rollout says it isn't that bad.
