Hit Loose On The 5pt?

For me the problem is not which hit but which ace. I know I want to play B/20 to add a good asset. 13/8* does not do much by comparison, it leaves a bunch of returns and reasonable 6s from the bat, the only benefit is unstacking the mid. So B/20, and then I can play either the positional 6/5* or the more race-conscious 22/21. That looks like a very close choice.

6/5* looks very natural, but almost anything plays well for white after that. Especially note that 6s from the bar are played 17/11. That may be the deciding factor. 22/21 sits on the race, and just waits to see whether any suitable blot hitting can be done next turn.

Of course, even if 22/21 is better, almost 90% of the BG players are stronger than their opponents and should play 6/5* to complicate things ;-)
