I guess the rationale is that if you are going to play the Dynasty strategy, you'd rather have the 5s as the outside chain and the 6s as the major inner chain.
But yeah, it seems too committal to me as well.
I failed by keeping my options
too open in yesterdays DC. I lost in Round 5 by not connecting a 4 because I wanted to leave open the possibility of snaking the 4s by hitting the top and left zones. Is that clearly wrong, clearly right, or clearly unclear?
(Also, I figured I was better off matching the slightly badly placed 2 in the upper zone than one of the other 2s. But that's pretty minor I think.)
