OtB I'm pretty sure I'd play 11/5, 24/18(2), 13/7. Anchor is good when things go bad.

Upcoming cube potential may have an influence here. Which play leads to the most efficient cubes?

At first I thought THREE sixes were automatic, but then I found a third play: 11/5, 13/1*, 13/7. That puts all the eggs in the attack-in-homeboard basket, probably at the overkill level.

The tweener play of 11/5, 13/1*, 24/18 puts pressure on bruney's outfield blot.

In the end I can't bring myself to leave one on the 18-point where Veronica has a lot to gain when she can hit. Five primes are usually right? Even trying to use QF, I fail and fall back to intuition:

11/5, 24/18(2), 13/7.
