Bar - 20, 6 - 4. Notice how our relentless attack has prevented him from making any inner board points while slowly building our own board.
Now is not the time to ease up on him.

well I tried to write something but the server ate it .
Make the golden point and hit loose on the four. With our better board and two anchors, plus his u
two blots we can play aggressively. Take away half his roll and knock him off balance.
