Blue is way up in the race, has rolled a racing number, and holds the cube. Doesn't Blue want to come closer to home, get missed and redouble? Can't redouble after 12/1, especially after the 22/36 numbers that put Blue on the bar (1's, 5's, 2-2, 4-4). 21/10 gives White 19/36 hitting numbers. Too much. 21/15 12/7 gives White only 15/36 numbers. And gives Blue a redouble if White doesn't hit or roll 6-6 or 4-4.
