In Response To: Attack or Prime? (Rich Munitz)

OTB, I was sure that hitting would win more games, and saw the cracking numbers entering from the bar. But I was uncertain whether the extra gammon losses would override the extra wins. I decided that against my opponent I did not want to give the big game, figuring a 2 point loss would be more easily overcome than 4. So I primed. My opponent rolled 26 and very briefly I felt like a genius. But I lost the game anyway (2 points).
