Do you think your bot can handle this roll?

I am having a rather hard time deciding between playing safe by clearing the 5-point or taking off two. If blue clears the five point and white enters on the next roll (56% chance of that), it seems like blue may need one roll too many to win. By playing 3/off 2/off blue seems to be in much better shape if not hit, even if white enters on 6. On the other hand, white may hit on 2 (30%), or dance with blue being forced to leave another shot next roll etc. (??%) If that happens blue needs to rehit to win. I think I would take two off; if white dances I think blue has a good redouble.
