Opening 21&

What do you think of 2-1 played 6-4 6-5. I've seen Kit Woolsey did it online vs GGraccoon (GNU 0ply in order to get into massive backgame (DMP)

Regarding opening 21& (double slot): Forgetting a moment about the extra numbers that hit the 4pt blot, the big problem I have with this play is squandering the opportunity to create an 11pt builder that can cover or hit back on the 5pt.

OTOH, it's an excellent roll and play for what Kit was trying to achieve.

Someone used to prop opening 43& (diagrammed below) against Herb Gurland, straight up. Herb was White.
