Making the deuce point is the obvious play, leaving only 5 shots instead of 13 and unstacking. But we should also think about what it will look like if we pay later. The midpoint is hard to clear safely. Getting hit now is not the end of the world, with Black's blot and open 5-point. Black's board is only going to get stronger over the next couple of rolls. Gammon wins don't matter so the extra home-board point is not of much value, whereas the 4-prime is. I'm going to try 13/7 11/7.
