In Response To: Wrong concept (Matt Cohn-Geier)

21/18 I agree. That is the important part of the play, mostly because it cuts down on gammon losses.

Then, why do you think 13/8 is better than 18/13? I am not saying that you are wrong, but not understanding the play. I thought 18/13 to mobilize the checkers on the midpoint on the next roll. It seems to me that after 13/8, getting the second spare into play is more difficult.
