Blue to play 3-1

While hitting looks disastrous, making the 5-pt doesn't. However, as tempting as grabbing the fight for most homeboard points is, the position will be quite stripped and White has 5's to anchor, {non-doublet combos of 2,4,6} plus all doublets to PoH, and short of those, some loose hits as her worst rolls.

After 22/21, I slightly prefer 13/10 over 8/5. Although that leaves a couple extra shots (62), the distribution looks much better for closing the acepoint or making some kind of point with minimizing (relatively speaking) future shots. Maybe starting the 5-pt is just too good to pass up, though....

22/21, 13/10.
