We're way behind in the race, with a poor outfield.  Taking a leaf out of dorbel's excellent daily blog, Im voting to unstack both of our heavy points with 13-10, 6-4.

Yowch - really don't like 13/11, once the five is made that man really doesn't threaten to do very much. Must remember to vote tactically next time.

I probably should have extended the voting on this one - in the end I changed my vote to one which seemed to sum up what people wanted to do - when ah_clem gets to analysing..will be interested to see what that says!

I missed this one, but I would have voted for the simple 13/8 - unstack the midpoint, bring a spare to the 8, and leave the 3-1 stinger structure in the rear.

steifnu had the right idea.  Unstack & slot.  But the other choices are not too far behind.
