Looks like the position B4 Blue's D5 joker that you posted the other day. I'd hang on to the anchor and play 9/3 with the 6. With the 2 you can try 4/2, 3/1 or 16/14. Tough choice. 16/14 doesn't leave any inner blots but it leaves 2 additional indirect shots. Does it gain enough on the 32 numbers that fail to hit after any play to overcome this loss? I doubt it. The parlay of making one of the other plays, hitting a shot without also covering, being hit back, and then going on to lose a game you would have won if you played 16/14 with this deuce is pretty long and unlikely. Between 4/2 or 3/1, I think I like the latter. I think you'll be able to keep the 8-point a little longer if you play 3/1 and the 8's a little better than the 7 for containing his two checkers on the 20.
