In Response To: NG Opening 21 (Nack Ballard)

I'd make the 22-pt anchor.

Going for a more advanced anchor, 23/20, 24/21 or 23/21 23/22, is probably not too far behind.

Playing 13/11 with the 2 is bad for two reasons. It starts to strip the mid and is more vulnerable to indirect hits than in regular backgammon.
