Double pass

In Response To: Double pass (Adam Versaw)

It wasn't the color-switch that got me -- that was after the fact. What I find confusing (am I the only one?) is that when I'm looking at the diagram the decision I'm making is for Blue so I'm expecting Blue's score to be listed first. I thought it was 4 to 3 to 7 (requiring a vastly more conservative doubling strategy than the actual 3 to 4 to 7) when I opined "not a double against human opponents" so imagine my surprise when I saw "double pass!" I had looked at your original post and still managed to misinterpret it as 4 to 3, so I just have to get used to the way the diagrams are labeled.

I would be interested in a rollout with the scores reversed (as I thought it was). If one doesn't appear here within a week here, I'll run one myself on Snowie, though I haven't yet figured out how to post it:)

Happy Holidays,

Nack
