Actually, XG runs *both* of them---it's fewer shots that way. True,
it's two blots, but X is dead in the water if even one blot is hit
and he fails to hit back. It is important, of course, that O has a
blot in her board so that X has a chance to hit back from the bar.
Without that blot, XG plays safe and rips up the board.
