Déjà vu?

White already has six checkers back. What's the use in sending a seventh back?

With 72 pips of timing, white is ok for the backgame, but hitting on the eighteen gives her even more timing. I will not hit on the eighteen, but rather hit loose on the ace - this forces her to hit if she shakes a one taking away some timing. It also delays anchoring there, but I think making a second anchor is almost certain.
