Admittedly there's no urgent need to anchor, given White's weak offensive position, but I also saw no need to risk my slight lead in the pip count by hitting. However, XG insists on hitting. At gammon save, XG says the two plays are tied.
In the variant, I have moved White's rearmost checker back one pip.
