In Response To: Positions from Chicago Semis Match - Ray v. Stick #4 (Casper van der Tak)

b/22,8/4.Three ideas -1) prevent opp to make his golden p. - after that his position will be dramaticly improved. Now he needs aces everywhere; 2)If the blot on 4p. is not hit - maintain much better board, making the point; 3)Deuce point - is not really the point needed to slot on. 4 point, if made - could really improve the pos against the opp's rare checkers. Looks like White is solid positional underdog anyway, so even if the checker is hit - black still has to consolidate, and build up 5p and bar. The hit will slow it down.
