In Response To: Ballard v. Sylvester (Stick)

For Chuck & From Chuck: At least this time the play you liked didn't win. (When was the last time we saw THAT??) ...May we at least conclude: TCTC?

No we may not, I have to be right! It took til over 700 games before the bastard GNU started seeing things in my light. It's nice to have some flexibility in this position but a blot on the 11 pt. gives White good sixes along with the 2s & 4s he's obviously hitting with from the bar. Offering up a second blot when all your opponent is going to do is attack w/out fear until it works. You have your racing lead, you have a serious lack of development that you can't do anything about, try to take the racing reins and make the best of it. The longer the rollout goes the more clear 8/6 is becoming (as I sit & watch it in RT) I will keep extending this as it's still pretty close, but with the direction it has been going and my feeling that 8/6 is right I won't post the longer rollout unless it changes its mind again.

The score (after 1 game) is: Nack 1, Joe 0 (match to 19 points)

Move number 8: Joe to play 23

Nack	154
Joe	151
