Community Comments

Dimitri Philos:

“24/20* 13/11 probably. 

Reasons:

- Race

- Fight for the golden point

- The 4pt is a good point but we let the opponent make his own 5pt which is a better point.”

Gaz Owen:

“I make the 4 as I like pinning those guys in on 24 pt”

John Georgiou:

“In this position if I was playing, I would play 24/20+13/11

Any non hitting reply from my opponent would very likely result in me cubing because we would be in a very attacking scenario to put pressure.”
