21S-55 at dmp

Next RO will be 21S-55 at DMP and I suspect I only have to RO two plays and also expect attacking to win, but perhaps not?

For 21S-55, GnuBG is d[A P0.8 H9.5 N11], but it's only 5k. The only other dmp rollout I know of is Snowie d[P A6 N12 H16] 5k, checkers not played AtS.

Key: A = Attack (8/3(2) 6/1*(2)), P = Point (13/3(2)), N = Near (13/8(2) 6/1*(2)), H = Hit (13/3 8/3 6/1*).

Given the difference between Opp's 9pt blot/builder (with 41S-55) and his 11pt blot/builder, I have habitually played 21S-55P at dmp. I've assumed it's pretty much a theoretical toss-up between P and A, but I play P for practical reasons. If I play A my opponent will be on the bar and making fewer errors (sometimes no errors for the rest of the game).

I look forward to seeing your RO :)
