for you...

The hit is abundantly clear.  Then the question becomes: do I anchor on the deuce point or stay split?

The Herd still has no builders aimed at my blots, so they aren't in immediate danger.  The two point is not exactly much of a prize, so I'll stay split.  The three point would be nice, so I'll slot it.  23/22 13/10*

In case anyone is interested, I rolled this one out.  Anchoring on the two is a whopper with cheese.
