Checker Play Problem

With two on the bar I look around for a blotty play to increase my flexibility.

Slotting the deuce is a candidate since we don't want white to anchor there, but it seems premature - only 22 makes it right away and we'll have a chance to hit loose if she slots one.

So, what point do we want to make next? Probably the deuce, but the seven would also be good followed by the nine. The nine is less valuable since white won't want to run anyway and the bar point fills the gap for the bear-in.

So, 8/7 to slot the bar point and aim three builders at the deuce, then 10/5 since the ten point won't ever do anything for us and it ais a fourth builder at the deuce.

10/5 8/7
