The Ace Point

Hitting loose on the ace-point is more effective than usual when your opponent has split to the bar-point. Not only do you make it more difficult for him to make the anchor, but many of his entering numbers play badly with a 6.

Once you've hit on the ace-point in the early going, you can't play a priming game. You might as well cover the blot on your ace point as soon as possible.
