Title: Game 1 Move 3 Blitzxz to play 5-2

We rolled a 5-4 and played the only legal move.  Now Blitzxz has a 5-2 for his consideration.

Hitting loose looks the most natural move here unstacking my 6-point and continuing my attack. However, I have to consider here hitting either to 4-point or 1-point. 4-point might look obvious, but 1-point gives less hits back. Also spreading my backcheckers will give me more control over the forum's home board and outfield. Still 4-point is just so much better blocking point and I move bar/20 6/4*.
