Make the 5-point. White's threats against your exposed back checkers aren't all that great. You'll rate to either anchor, run off the 22-point, or hit a shot in the near future. You have lots of ways to do something good on White's side of the board but few ways to make your own 5-point. So do what's hard now. Also, White's takepoint is elevated ATS and I think making the 5 brings you closer to a cube. You might have a cube next time if White rolls poorly i.e. 66,65,63,61,52,41,32,21.
