The two-hand rule

In Response To: The two-hand rule (Julia Hayward)

Depending on my opponent I'll occasionally make the cute little moves. The type that really freaks some people out is shifting with a doublet by sliding over a whole series of checker w/o moving the spares. As an example, assume you have two on your five point, none on your ace point. and three each on two point, three point, and four point. With a 2-2 you play 5/1(2) by just sliding the two checkers on the five point over to the four point forcing the once space movement of two checkers from each point leaving the spares stationary. Most Championship opponents would never blink, but the occasional opponent just freaks out.
