An easy play to see OtB but a very tough one to make when the other play(s) seem very reasonable. XG dinged me for the quiet and calm 11, 7 and I thought maybe a rollout would prove me right. It didn't. Not to ever be overlooked is the opponent having a blot in his inner board. See the obvious variant below for when that blot is lifted and ...it's still right to slot!?
