It's one of the automatic moves. 13/8 24/23.  Best at all match scores and in money play.  No other play has positive equity. I'd he shocked if he played anything else.

At the matchscore, there's something to say for 13/8 6/5 as it will likely lead to a bit more gammons, but I'd still play 24/23 13/8 myself. Make it 5-away 2-away (or 4-away 3-away) and I'd go for 13/8 6/5.
