Hit the blot now, or wait for better timing?

I like hitting now.  we have a three point board and one checker back already.  Sending a second one back will increase our possibilities of containing it.

The disadvantage is that we give up our 23 point, which is the lynchpin of our backgame structure. But the whole point of a backbgame is to wait for a shot so that you can send back and contain a checker, two if you're lucky.  Here we have a chance to send back a second one; it would be nice if his board were in more disarray, but I'll take this.

22/12*

15/11, 15/9 Removes pressure on white blot, I don't see any reason to do that
