Rollout

If the bot is right, then it must be the long-term value of the spare on the sixpoint (good for playing potentially awkward fours and fives). The 6/3 play is less flexible in comparison. Kit Woolsey is famous for his statement "you can't say enough good things about a spare on your sixpoint".

The four homeboard blots after 4/1 are not really a concern here, as they figure to get covered soon, before any hitting might start. Flexibility might be very important after playing 13/10(3), as clearing the mid, the ten and the eight safely is no walk in the park.

move?

Thanks, but no thanks... 6s did me in! 

Do you want this?

Diane,

I'd like to roll out all the recent decisions, and it would be a lot easier if i had the .sgf file instead of setting up each position by hand.

So, please post it as soon as it is convenient.  thanks.
