Tough play obviously.. I kinda like the stack play because it gains more I think than the slot play and doesn't get you gammoned as much. I feel that he is only a fly shot away from swinging the game and the opponent does have 2 blots to clean up, so he will have chances if he waits. The main point for me tho is not getting blown out of the game right away and living to see another roll. The cube is less likely to b used against you if you stack rather than the slot hit cube scenario..

The slot play often exposes more blots on the next roll in many instances and even if it works, you may likely get hit on the next roll anyway and get cubed out while you won't b able to cube too early either if u make the 5 pt. I do slot at DMP however and would think it's a blunder not to in that situation.
