Martyn Hamer:
I would keep the mid and 11/9(2) 6/2 is the best I can see
Wil Snellings:
my first look is to keep 11 point and try the points-to-builders play of 6/2(2)... I sometimes do this too much, but it feels ok here
Neil Kazaross:
If we play 6/2(2) are we willing next roll to leave a direct shot to make a 4 pt board? Yes, probably, so I slightly prefer this to my 2nd play of 9 pt and 1 pt which lets my 9 and 8 points aim at the 3 and 2 points.
