Game 2, move 16: steifnu 2-1

[diane]

move?

[stiefnu]

With no immediately bad rolls, my best bet must surely be to simply bear two off.  2-off, 1-off.

I'm not sure how hard stiefnu thought about hitting, but would have been a double whopper and swamped all our staying errors.  Was it worth it to stay in hopes of him making an error?  I doubt it.  But what's done is done.

Well, I considered it, of course, but leaving a shot against the Herd's closed board seemed a really, really bad idea.  So bad, in fact, that I was reluctant to even mention the possibility.
