20/11 for me. Just put a builder round the corner. Make the bar. White can still win going forward with a direct 6 hit follow by a cover (so, dont make the 4pt) - obviously there is much more to the 'win' sequence, but I know I would hit and cover. Dont anchor up just yet, let white have his partial prime. With only one checker back you can more easily escape, and watch it crumble as you box him in.
