Blue to play 61

It isn't the same ballpark, but after looking at 61, here is also pressure. Playing down is just to lame. Making the bar will be fine and he then has to come to the edge. But how high is the probability to extend the four in a row?

I would play the slot. Slotting is a weapon, when we can't make points quick enough. Paying with 5 shots for getting 24 covers to make five in a row, no blot dangling in the outfield. If we are hit, this will not the end and even dancing can be good. Perhaps we can crack his flying fortress.

6/2 8/5.

P.S.: Can you imagine what the right move was, and what I played?
