I’m not gifted with the best depth perception (a facet of a significant astigmatism I deal with), so I wouldn’t say I guessed. Whether it nicked the rim or missed by nine inches, it would probably look the same to me, and under normal circumstances and/or in a two-person game I’m not going to pass on what might have missed by nine inches.

The bigger takeaway for me is that I had help on the left side, and should have engaged that help when I had the chance, but didn’t. If I had, I would have been more ready to trust—and comfortable with trusting—my partner here. It’s definitely in my memory bank for future use now.
