Who's holding whom?

It appears that White is at sixes & sevens, here. She can be forced off the barpoint anchor anytime soon with 6 rolls and when blue plays correctly (16/10 6/3) only 7 rolls containing a 3 should be used for hitting. She'll cash with 55 while, 22 will get her closer to home.

Blue may have one possibly two awkward rolls such 33 and perhaps 44 and then the question of "Who's Holding Whom" will almost be on a knife-edge.

In these other 19 rolls, white will continue to build her board and will most likely be at peak strength before blue's show real promise. As white's board gains strength blue may have to make plans for his 11pt sooner than anticipated - sooner would make it less of a liability, perhaps. The position could easily arrive at the classic double/take point.
