This is wild. I'd have just played 24/23 13/8 and doubt I'd see other options.

I can't see that slotting, containing, and escaping as having improved chances compared to just jamming in my back guys, and then slotting or attacking. Although may end up with just a duece point game.

Not sure since slotting may gain timing if it fails. But may also end up without a back anchor. I like locking up a duece point game. 24/23 8/3 might be viable, but I wouldn't play it OTB because of the ridicule. Plus won't mind forcing White to play 6s elsewhere. Maybe leaping out to the bar? But I don't want that anchor, might help timing. But may get blown off the board.

So 13/7 or anchor for me, I anchor and hope to attack next roll, recirculating if it doesn't work.
