15/11 5/4 looks like a nice play. We may then win this as a prime vs. prime, or as a holding game, where our chances are good because of the checkers out of play on the ace and the unmade 4-point.

If we instead hit and get return hit, that would be a significant setback. It delays our board building, plays into opps strength (more homeboard points), and may allow the making of the 4 point with tempo (POH) and limited returns. If we get hit and the return is missed, we make some gains but nothing really big, we'd still be trailing in the race; only when we hit and opp dances, we gain significantly.

With positional advantages, play positionally...
