Well, the hit makes me regret the slot a bit.  But a 3-2, rather than a 4-2 would have paid off nicely.  Against most opponents taking the risk by slotting would probably have been correct, assuming I can play out my resulting position after a hit well.  However, the herd is tough as groupthink will more often reach the correct answer - as a review of past matches can attest.

I've made my next play so we should be back on track for speedy play on my part.    :)
