Hit twice with 23/18*/17*. With the three point board he's 27/36 to still be sitting on the bar next roll meanwhile we have a double-shot at sending a sixth(!) checker back.

Yes, there are 11 rolls that hit our four-point blot, but covering the blot now gives him a chance to collect himself and regroup - we'll still have four blots after 23/18* 9/4, and I think we're almost as safe with two on the bar and six blots. The double hit works really well when it works, so go for it.

It's gammon go. Attack!
