In Response To: No need for a gammon...hit twice anyway? (Timothy Chow)

If we hit twice, White may either hit back immediately while her board is still strong, or dance a while before having to crunch her board. If we hop out, White may anchor on the 5pt but it's hard for her to hold that anchor and still keep her board.

		White is Player 2 score: 0 pip: 112 1 point match pip: 98 score: 0 Blue is Player 1
