(Subject line was aimed at Stick, not Matt.)

This looks like a third roll position (31P 42P 44ENQ)...

Now 5th roll; White rolled 4-1 after your above sequence and played 13/8. (Don't think that's the right play although it could be. Splitting looks required except that then there's no comfortable four. 6/2 is major league wimpy and 13/9 tees it up for Blue. Maybe 13/8 is right. Comments anyone?)
