Mr NeilKaz states that he didn't think there was a great need to hit. I wonder.

All positions on this site are routinely addressed in the theoretical, ie that one is playing an equal opponent. There aren't many people equal to Mr NeilKaz though, so might not he or some other WC player here have given some real thought OTB to the wild play, in order to complicate the position? Playing against a weak box, or perhaps having spotted a patzer a 53 start? (Sorry to mess up your sequence Nack.) Is anyone here unhumble enough to admit they might have thought along the lines of:

"Well, 8/4*6/5 may not be far wrong duping 4's, and it sure as hell complicates things. Might even be right...! And it does makes me look like I'm prepared to make wild plays at these stakes: that won't hurt. And what if he gives me a cube? Is it a cube? Don't think so - but this guy may ship!"

Well, perhaps not. Forgive me for trying to think like a WC player. (BTW, FWIW this half donkey would surely have made the obvious play, despite his somewhat wild style; opponents 61 duping so nicely, scuppering any thoughts of heroics.)
