In Response To: Another anchor-and-guard position (Timothy Chow)

Not much to work with here... Candidate moves:

13/6 - nah. Leaves a double shot and makes an ugly stack on the 6.

10/6 8/5 - I'd like to keep the ten point until I clear the midpoint, and leaving the shot in direct range of his spare on the 7 is not good. He wants hit with his spare.

13/10 8/5 - again it leaves a double-shot, but at least it doesn't create an ugly stack on the 6 point

8/5 8/3 - this strips the 8 point and leaves a direct shot.

8/1* - hitting takes away half a roll and with his blot in his homeboard gives counterplay should we be hit from the bar. If I counted correctly, this leaves the fewest shots, but it gives us a rather inflexible position.

13/9 13/10 - this leaves two more shots than the loose hit, but it looks much more flexible. Clearing our midpoint will be an ongoing problem for us, so I figure why not clear it now while his board is weak?

I'll go for that 13/9 13/10
