Double and take.

Blue is a strong favorite and has some big market losers. But White's structure is flawless ; she just has to survive the attack and she will be firmly back in the game. With Blue having only a slightly unusual two-and-two-halves points board, she has significantly more chances to do this than in the usual blitzes.

A good, usually market-losing roll for Blue is to hit the blot on the 2pt and cover one of his own, something like 3-2: 6/3 4/2*. He could get the same kind of position from a "standard" blitz, starting from a 3pt board and hitting loose.

On the other hand, his lemons will often really blow-up in his face while the same in a normal blitz would leave him in a still comfortable situation.

The latter would be a pass, the problem position looks like an easy take.
