I'm not sure about the second part of the move - 13/9 gives my opponent a chance to escape with if he rolls 66. I think it is very important to maintain the midpoint as long as he is down there - I want to be able to get him when he has to split.<br /><br />If I play the selected move my opponent has only 2 rolls to escape safely from me.<br /><br /><br />Actually by blocking him in my outer board and "unblocking" him in his board (and hoping he doesn't roll 44 or 55) I am actually pushing him to enter his homeboard with his outer board points while trying not to split his 18pt. At one point he will have to split them and this is when I attack. The only problem is that I also need to move my checkers in the upcoming rolls. So now I'm not sure what to do :)<br /><br /><br />I hope this is a good enough reason to move from his 5pt. But if he rolls 55 or 44 the match is pretty much over. Backgammon is a game of luck and statistics anyway, so I choose this move :)Maja from 2good2double - unique doubling cubeshttp://2good2double.comnoreply@blogger.com
