In Response To: What Colour is the Wind - #3 (Stick)

I cleared the mid here and thought it was clear. I can handle being wrong but I couldn't accept the explanation given for why it was right not to leave a shot. (paraphrasing: White's position is too strong, wait for White to create a weakness before leaving the shot. That's a nice theory but White has way too much timing and will rarely create a worthwhile weakness.

The only reason clearing the 8pt is even close is because of the odd(?) extra gammons it wins. I think clearing the 8pt deserves to be farther back, it's not good mkay.
