In Response To: Crunch Position Cube Action (Christian Munk-Christensen)

I don't think the direct shot after a running 5 is important; it is an advantage, but not a big thing. If missed you may need to move the blot further forward, which is a disadvantage. The advantage of keeping the checker on the 20 is that it provides more contact in the long run.

I think the front-loading of the prime is not bad here, as you'd want to slot and make inside points behind the anchor in any case. And I don't think the spare on the 10 is well positioned at the moment, my guess would be that it would be best positioned on the 8 or 7. But not bad on the 5 point either. The advantage of keeping the 10, 8 and 7 clean is that it gives us more flexibility in how to later trap the anchor; having spares on any of these points may make it more difficult to break the point if we'd want to.

Not saying you are not correct, but in any case, non-trivial for me.
