With White already having the three point made and far ahead in the race, Blue really wants to make the 20 point, rather than the 18 (creating either a 2-7 holding structure which is inefficient, or a bar point holding game with vulnerable blots. Neither are particularly good. So this counts against 24/18. 20/14 prevents White from doing much damage, but at the cost of abandoning the 20 point slot. 13/7 puts another checker into play and maximizes the chances of making the 20. One of the tactical factors to consider is that 13/7 duplicates 2s.
