A checker on the bar vs. a 3 point board is very strong.

A broken four prime backed up by a solid four point prime and 13 in the zone against a single checker is also quite strong.

Which is better? I'm inclined towards the latter due to being lukewarm about burying two on the deuce and the difficulty of springing the runners. By priming instead of POHing (if that's a word) we give white a chance have her blockade deteriorate. OTOH, two down breaks connectivity for what that's worth.

So, put this in the "no idea" category, but I'll prime instead of attack. Maybe I'll learn something.

13/7 13/9.
