Well, I hope I am advanced player but I don't think this position is easy and obvious at all. At first sight 13/10 is a play but it doesn't make anything with back checkers which are blocked. On the other hand Blue is behind in race so he need more contact. Also if he make 10pt he can't keep three outfield point a lot. 10/8 24/23 split back checkers but gives us non flexible position with four checkers on 8pt. 24/22 10/9 gives us escaping six but leave direct shot. So this is not easy choice. Anyway I will go with 13/10. But what about cube next turn. I think how White has double and blue maybe even should pass. For correct answer rollout is must bcuz gnu is also undecided at his 2ply and 3ply.
