According to the cube when I saw the position, I just considered two gammon safe candidates :1)11/4 and 2)13/6...Personally I chose 13/6. However it leaves 3 indirect shots, the blot on 11pt could be a valuable builder for making 10pt or 7pt in the future. Therefore, we might counter prime our opponent (as our game plan).So for me 13/6. BUT, when I see the analysis of the position in xg I noticed white wins around 21% G in this position and I compared it with the position below.In this position white wins around 25% G. Not a huge difference I think....which leads us going for the mentioned game plan directly: slotting to the point which is hard to make naturally.... 11/7 13/10...Nice position :)
