Random 65

This one doesn't look remotely close to me. It is vital to strike now, before Yellow makes her board. 13/7 6/1* leaves an extra 11 shots (22 vs 11), yes, but only 4 of them (61 41) hit and cover, and otherwise Brown has a shot back from the roof, and hitting that blot or even hitting back somewhere else would keep him well in the game.

13/2 is way too stiff for my taste. Look at how Brown's follow-up numbers play when Yellow misses.

I'm not even sure I'd play 13/2 if White already had her 4pt closed, so I certainly wouldn't play it with her 4pt being slotted, when there is so much to be gained from 13/7 6/1* -- mainly getting yellow off the ace point but also covering the 7pt or using the 7pt builder to make another point.
