Bot Battle #106

I see three approaches:

1) Button up, 2) hit loose, 3) Bring down a builder.

With (1) we can either slot (into a double shot) or slide 6/5. Neither of those is especially appetizing.

With (3) we can continue to the 10-pt or move up 22/21. I prefer the latter mostly because it takes some of the sting out of White's 55 and 33. We'd rather make the 21-pt if anchoring is in the coming cards anyway.

As far as (2) goes, we don't yet have enough checkers in the zone for a blitz, that's our last builder on the 6-pt, and we're not gaining immediate tempo.

(3) gets my vote:

13/11, 22/21.

P.S. I realize I've seen this before since Jason is posting positions (in fact, errors) we had in our weekly study match. These are from long enough ago that I don't remember them but I'm suspecting that we played 13/11, 22/21 or 13/10 originally. Hmmmm. I hate repeating mistakes!
