I would play 20/14 13/9. Pointing on the 2-point is overreaching; it gains some time but puts two checkers out of play. Blue should just take the opportunity to get his checkers around and solidify his race lead. The only other candidate in my mind is 15/9 13/9 but that seems to strand the back checkers too much. 20/14 13/9 leaves two blots in the outfield but White's midpoint is stripped and he's on the bar.
