25/21/15.

We do NOT want to sit on the point the backgame player wants. Stick's short on amo up front. In addition the 15-point blot (if survives) is a builder for the 9-point -- a good point for priming his backgame.

BTW, even though I've twiced mentioned a backgame, Stick can still go forward. Thus wide open plays like 13/7 are definitely not appropriate. (I don't expect anyone to vote for that, anyway. Just trying to be complete.) Along those same lines we don't want to play 11/5, even though the 11-point is inefficient. We want those builders for the back of our prime and WE DEFINITELY want to get out of Stick's board. He has much better frontward chances if we have two in his board.

I suppose the primary alternative is 22/16 but I'm not tempted by that play in the least.
