Nine checkers in the zone is not overwhelming, but eleven is. If we bring down two and he dances we've lost our market.  He has nine dancing numbers, so I think O'hagen's law applies: Nine market losers with no or few rolls that are awful is a cube.

I don't think the match score affects this much. I say ship it.  It's probably a take, but that's Roman's problem not ours.
