David wrote, "GG and GS are too close to call of course. But, it is interesting that split and slot are reversed from the order that most of us would find intuitive."

When White slots on the opening roll with 21, 41 or 51, he will lose more gammons than if he had split. However, when Black has his 3pt, splitting becomes more dangerous (because Black's board is now stronger) and slotting becomes more attractive.

If Black's inner point is stronger (the 4pt or 5pt), then slotting is riskier than when Black owns his 3pt.
