Blue to play 61

First, look at the position below, copied from Stick's recent post. He wrote, "I didn't include hitting [in the rollout] because it's a double whopper."

Now, look at the position above, which contains one teensy change: I moved one of Blue's 15pt checkers to his 6pt.

Should Blue hit now?
