OK, I'll bite on this one. You can't break the anchor 18-9, so the 6 must be played 7-1. There are two legal threes. 6-3, making a third board point and unpiling the stack on the 6 looks much better than 7-4. While 7-4 is superficially blotless, leaving three blots in the home board lets white bring men home with impunity. And you leave only 11 shots while white has a board blot.
