In Response To: Payment due? -- Rollout (Daniel Murphy)

Daniel, thanks for sharing the position and the rollout.

White has only one checker back with no anchor. You patiently fill in the points behind him, and sooner or later, you will roll a joker double to bring home your outfield point or you will point on him or at least pick and pass (or call it "pick and lick," if you like).

I suggest you modify the position by taking a checker from White's midpoint, sending it back to join White's lonely back blot, making an anchor on the 20pt. Now, with no chance to eventually attack, it might be right to volunteer.

Why don't you roll it out and share the result with us?

      • Rollout: 1ply/3ply, but good enough for me
