Is this a "next"?

In Response To: Is this a "next"? (Casper Van der Tak)

And what anchor do you make at GS? I'd probably go for the 20, but if you make the 21 you can also cover the 9, which is a plus, so not sure.

I completely missed seeing 24/21, 13/9 until after I posted (but before I read others). I changed my mind at GS to this (instead of making 20-point). All other scores I stayed with my original choice.

Two problems I see with with 20(2) at GS: the bigger one is the 7 shots at the blot on the 9-point, with possibly more shots there in later rolls. Secondly, the blot remaining on the 21-point is a much juicier (and vulnerable) target compared to leaving a blot on the 23-point (after 24/21, 13/9). And, besides, the 9-point isn't bad to have just on its own merit.
