I also think you make a good case for taking your shots along the right edge, where the odds of nailing a bomb are pretty low.

chuckles is right that if you click next to the top 5 and it's open the puzzle may work itself out, but it's a 50/50 shot and clicking somewhere on the right edge may be better than 50/50.

I wouldn't click directly below the 1 on the edge though.

the risk vs info factor I think is best in the square to the right of the upper 5

That square only tells you useful info less than 25% of the time

I click the square to the right of the upper 5. If it is a not a bomb, the rest of the puzzle is almost certainly solvable. I see no other square like that.

lol so I misread this instruction and instead clicked somewhere else to make the puzzle even more interesting. I read it as "upper right of the 5"

solvable now?
