Not so many choices and they all look ugly. Giving up the six point to attack the last checker is a play many humans would not even consider, at least I did not.

10/30/2010 4:11 PM, nori: Black cannot prime. since Black has made 2pt and 1pt. And it does not make any sense to prime single back-cheker. And we have good anchor, white board is not so strong. Black would not die by getting hit. Black do not want back checker to be escaped. If that back checker put on 13pt, then it looks close to double(because we are trailing) In any play we leave direct shots any way, so make some bad numbers (dance) for white.
