That is a good achievement but risky as well. A close out is a situation when a players blocks out all is home board with checkers (2 at least in each point) while the other player's checker or checkers are on the bar waiting to get in. this forces the player to wait and pass his turn until on point is freed or a blot. However this is a risky situation because it happens many times that a blot is reviled in the player home board and this blot is hit. Then from a very dominant position the player who made close out, becomes the inferior and now has to start all over with the hit checker.
