Karsten Nielsen:
“When the opponents back checkers are split. There is less reason to bring builders down. More fly shots are making it more risky. Whereas coming up 23/21 duplicates 21 and 32. They both want to hit loose and anchor up.”
Philippe Sutra:
“13/11 24/23 'cause... 13/11 6/5 is too dangerous with the back checkers already split. I think....”
Neil Kazaross:
“24/21 is best for money, so I can't imagine that it isn't best here, but will await your long and strong RO to be sure.”
