I don't think 20/11 is right here; I think you need to outboard your opponent by more to make it right. One thing to consider in these type of positions where you are leaving shots that can be hit from the anchor is the number of checkers on your opponent's anchor. Here a hit from the anchor keeps the anchor; in other positions, hitting means breaking the anchor. The latter is better for you - more gammon wins.
