How to use this in play
Only 2 digit sets sum to 37 across 6 cells. That makes this run useful for cross-reference deductions: a digit you can rule out from one of the cells (because the perpendicular run forbids it) often forces the entire combination.
Locked digits: 6, 7, 8, 9. These digits each appear in every valid combination, so they each must occupy one cell of the run; useful when a perpendicular run rules any of them out of a candidate cell.
Forbidden digits: 1. None of this digit appears in any valid combination, so you can rule it out of the run's cells immediately.
