Holding?

I would play 20/18 10/5 here, though I have a tendency to make big plays too often. I believe that White's home-board blot is critical here (as of course is your own five-point board). If White hits you without covering, you get a direct shot at that blot, so the hits are not as bad as they might seem at first. Also, you usually get at least a double indirect shot rather than a single indirect shot in many cases when you don't get hit.
