If you saw this rollout the first time I posted it, sorry, I was dead tired =P Even though tidying up with 13/11 makes a solid position with a good racing lead it's best to go for the kill by hitting both. When you can hit two it takes a decent play B to overcome hitting both. [when 'both' are well placed of course] Here you knock him off the anchor he'd like to make and unstack your heavy six point at the same time. If he fails to throw a four you'll have quite a strong position, being hugely favored to make the four point and probably do something else worthwhile. Even if hit you'll make an anchor and have a break even position.
