The main theme against a developing backgame is to fix it as a true backgame via building a prime in front of the anchors. Here, there is no second anchor formed. There is the possibility for white, to fight for the bar point. The front position is a little bit brittle, with the stack on six. i think, it is necessary to hit on three for stealing half a roll to cut down white's chances for the barpoint. The front position of white is anaemic with 6 checkers in the zone. What point is paramount in our board to fix white in a deep backgame? The fourpoint. Is it naturally to make? No. White has already a bunch of split to create the anchor. So i think, 11/9 is just to lame. 13/11 get's a spare from the midpoint away to strip it. And it is not an improvement in builder diversification. After all, i see the hyper aggressive slot on four. This put white under pressure, if he can't destroy the slot, our position can get much stronger instantly. The silent killer stack is unstacked. If the checker is hit, it will not harm us much, because it is easy to recirculate. Beneath the quiz factor, it was mainly the stack, which let me instantly see the slot as a candidate.

BAR/22* 6/4.
