In Response To: Hit one or hit two? (Lucas Bauer)

I forgot to consider 6/2(2), 13/9*, 8/4*. Im guessing this is the best play.

Unstacking the 6-point is desirable, but making the four point and not leaving a blot in the homeboard is even more desirable. I'm loathe to make the two point with the 5 and 4 points still open, and this play leaves 5(!) blots strewn around the board with only one checker on the bar. Count the return shots - there's alot - vs 13/9*(2) 8/4*(2) which leaves only double-aces to hit.
