Gin-Go Board Strategy

About Gin-Go, from BoardGameGeek:

In a Rummy style of play, put down your spreads and place your chips to match each placed card. Two opponents (or teams of two) play from either end, in a tit-for-tat strategy trying to knock off each other's chips using card spreads to build a connecting link from their Ace to King row. Build your link, break theirs and hold that link until the hand is played out is what makes Gin-Go an exciting, fun and challenging game. -description from the designer
