Rollout: Do you have the guts to hit?

The rollout puts the hit on top. As I said before, I wouldn't have hit here, but if we give the opponent a significant race lead without increasing his attacking potential too much then I would probably hit.

I've also constructed a possible position that Yellow may have faced on the previous roll, to illustrate that creating a blotty board isn't necessarily a blunder.
