In Response To: Late opening 61 to play (Timothy Chow)

Interesting problem. For bgonline posts, I tend to suspect QF, though Tim throws in a mix of normal-looking plays, too, so it's hard to say.

Leaving three far side blots is dangerous (gammon-prone) when Blue has a weak board (and 8/2 3/2 fails to strengthen it much), though I'd rather have the third blot on the 14pt (aiming at the 11pt blot as a deflection ploy) than on the 20pt (where Opp can hit while unstacking).

With that in mind, 20/14 24/23 is my QF guess, though OTB (for money) I'm sure I'd run with the normal-looking 20/13. The more-blot alternatives of 20/14 6/5 and 20/14 23/22 are unappealing to me except at DMP- and GG-like scores.
