Option 1: 3(2) leaves the outfield blot to make the 3-pt. White's stripped midpt is often enough to leave a blot in her outfield, but how much does that matter? White's deuces aren't duped (except 62 which gives up the middie anyway), Blue doesn't want to make his 14-pt, and White's advanced anchor is enough to play this game forward without owning the midpt. All that risk for making a point behind opp's anchor...

Option 2: 14/11, 13/8. Leaves only 6 shots and that builder is still available to make the 7-, 9-, or 10-pt.

Option 3: 14/6. Super safe but erases a builder for Blue's outfield.

Anything else on the radar? 14/9 with some not-so-random (nor comfortable) 3 slots a desirable point but White relishes the chance to hit there and get moving. Definitely not worth it, IMO. 13/5 just offers up 14 shots for what, pretty distribution?

14/11, 13/8.
