Which position will have the bigger equity after playing the roll? The first or the second?

There are not only the big doubles, that can create problems.

For the Anti-Bar Bear-Off, Danny wrotes (VLAC p. 182):

"When the point involved is higher than the 4-point, a gap is more dangerous than a third man. When the point is lower than the 4-point, the third man is more dangerous than a gap. ..."

Is this true, and can we use this also for Anti-Anchor Bear-Offs?
