2-2 to play

In Response To: 2-2 to play (Dave Ranson)

The first three 2's seem clear: 8/4* 6/4. For the last 2, we note that Black has two blots in his board so that we can afford to play fairly boldly; in particular, we don't need to be afraid of indirect shots. 7/5 is the boldest, but there's also 13/11 or 8/6. Not sure but I think I'd try 13/11; it retains the 8pt, brings another checker in the zone, and avoids the direct shot that 7/5 affords. It's not so important to keep the midpoint here, especially since we hold the 18pt.
