Poll
I see no reason to leave any blots about, and simply moving to the bar point looks like the most flexible structure.
The other two non-blot-leaving plays are probably not too far behind. 13/7.

We have a non-trivial move to make. Wake up, everybody.

Ok, maybe it's not that non-trivial. I'll next this as soon as I get home to the computer with the match on it.

gnu's opinion
I didn't bother to roll this one out. Our choice is clearly correct, but I'm a bit surprised how much worse the other safe plays are. I guess this move was trivial after all. Sorry for waking everyone.
