Hit or Anchor

What's my game plan. Anchoring and giving up control of the game is a gammon save strategy. It doesn't have a plan for winning. And here we are playing for cash.

I can't be gammoned at this point in the game so why am I positioning to accept a loss?

My opponent almost certainly won't cube after I hit but likely should or soon will simply on the race if I anchor and I should probably then just give up and give him the moniy.

It's a position where I may as well throw a grenade and see if it changes my fate.

It probably won't work either but anchoring is like just handing over the cash now. Of course, I am probably completely wrong and the bottom will laugh it's ass off. But I hit and hope.
