		White is Player 2 score: 0 pip: 145 Unlimited Game Jacoby Beaver pip: 137 score: 0 Blue is Player 1

32S-32H-61$-55P-51N-32E-53P-31

The variant position above is identical except that Blue's 11pt blot is instead on his 10pt.
Do you make the same play with 31, and if not, why not?

A rollout of the original position appears below. (Thanks, Mike.)
