Play smarter!

Richard’s “play smarter” clip: when you’re already ahead at the kitchen, a drop that isn’t a clean winner invites them in and resets to neutral.
Only drop when they’re well behind the baseline and on their heels — otherwise keep applying pressure.

• If you’re at kitchen and they’re back, prefer pressure over soft drops
• Save the drop for deep, back-footed opponents
• Review points you “gave away” with free drops
