Re: Finally A Win In An Even Game
Tapir, I found both approaches using the original four moves. I assume Ed found the same, but used the more common formation to get bigger, more significant numbers.

Re: Finally A Win In An Even Game
The high approach definitely feels good to me in this position, but I think Joaz is explaining too much with it. I would be shocked to find that at pro level, the high approach was worth 5 points more than the low approach (2 would be believable). In games where groups needlessly die, this is NOT the low-hanging fruit.
That which can be destroyed by the truth should be.
