We have two ways to foul this up - our blocked doubles and a White 33. We fix our 44 and 55 by stepping the back man up; then White's 33 is strong whatever we do (after 24/22 10/5 he'll shift points to get a pop at our two remaining blots) so we might as well keep on going, keep the flexibility for building points or getting home neatly if White comes in with a single man.

thx for your observations julia, if you wrap the text by selecting it and clicking the 'radioactive' button, then folks can vote first, then read the comments without being influenced first; also put you actual choice in bold then you can discuss other moves and folks will know which one you advocate.

we can all change our vote by choosing 'edit vote' if necessary but this way it makes us decide our moves first then assess it

good to hear your comments btw
