Title: Game 3, move 9: Herd 5-3
Post by: diane on June 14, 2011, 09:40:04 PM
Again, some moves played themselves..

After the 22 move, clemstog obligingly danced thrice with 5-6, 2-2, 2-4.
Herd:
4-4, 17/9, 8/4(2)
6-5, 9/3, 8/3

Now herd has a 5-3 to play for the best.

Why is the cube still centered?

I'm with the herd now.  After advocating for the 6/2(2) blunder I feel I shout stick with one side lest people wonder. 

Seems like we might have had a cube after the first dance, but I'd have to take another look.  Definitely too good now so it's play on.
Spoiler
I'll give him the 61 joker since we still have good counterplay but I won't give him the 11 joker since we're sunk after that. Bring down two 13/8 13/10
