In Response To: Rollouts (Fender)

24/20 23/21 was my choice when I looked at this position. I can't say that my reasons are the right ones, but here is how I thought about it. A checker on the 23pt is poorly positioned when the opponent's 8pt is made; this is what I think most people underestimate. We would like to get our back checkers moving but they are somewhat vulnerable to attack. Playing two up increases our chances of making an advanced anchor.
