| Black to play 5-2. |
He moves a man from White’s 12 point to his own 11 point for the [2] and continues the same man from the 11 point to the 6 point in his Home table for the [5]. This was Black’s best play as he has advanced another man to his blockade and is in a good position to secure additional Blocked points in his Home table.
If he can secure these and manage to hit a White Blot, White will have considerable difficulty in re-entering the “hit” man.
