In Response To: Daily Quiz 3/21/11 (Stick)

1. 18/14* and then 3/1*(2) looks tempting but my guess is that it's an overplay. Yellow already has two checkers on the bar and 13/11(2) brings two checkers into the zone so it's still a blitzing play. Not sure but I'll go for 13/11(2).

2. 21/15 seems clear and then hitting seems too reckless when we're outboarded. I'll just play 15/13 and hope for better things later.

3. This might be a double but 63 55 44 blot immediately and 66 65 64 52 51 41 leave us with a very awkward position with future blotting danger. I'd hold off a roll; ND/T.

4. My first instinct is D/P because Black's position is so awkward, but a 30-pip lead is nothing to sneeze at and Yellow's hitting 1's are duplicated. D/T.

5. 24/22* 7/1* looks clear.

6. I start with bar/24 7/6(2). Then both 24/23 and 2/1 are destructive so we have to choose the lesser of two evils. I guess 24/23 is my choice.

7. D/P would be my OTB assessment but I won't be too shocked if it's a take.
