If we hit, then I think 17/15 is the best 2 as it dupes 43 and 13, creates 65 as a cover number, lets 55 play better next turn and doesn't create a new blot. 13/11 is OK but I think to risky for what it gains.

However, I strongly think that the stodgy 17/13 8/6 wins more total games. This leaves no jokers or immediate turn around chances and if Stick rolls a 3, so what ? He's left with a trapped blot on our ace pt and we usually clear towards home anyhow. If he runs the checker off our 4 pt, so what ? It may not get to safety anyhow and it's exit leaves two checkers stuck and nearly primed on our ace pt.

Most clearly hitting loose will win more G's, but will it will enough to compensate for the added losses and cubeful effects ? I have my doubts and would defer to my doubles partner here.

I'll vote 17/13 8/6 following my principle of playing to win the most single games when the cube is fully live and I'm not certain which play is best.
