Spoiler
It's the Crawford game, so no cubing, but automatic cubes after this game (if we don't win). With Linus even-away his gammons are valuable, while our gammon wins are redundant. That points toward splitting plays, in an attempt to make a gammon-saving high(er) anchor early on while it's still relatively safe. So 24/22 13/8 looks clear at this score.
