I don't want a hitting war until I take care of my 1-point, so I won't be moving my back or 12-point checkers yet.
I could play the pure waiting game: 6/1 5/1 and see what white leaves next.
Now, I think I'm leaning toward 5/1 8/3. I have fixed the problem at home, brought in a builder for the 2-point, and left white with duplicated 4s.
On the other hand, if I am hit first and stay on the bar, I need to be thinking about a possible double down the road. That leans things back toward waiting, but by how much?
In the moment I would probably play the waiting game, and wonder if I am playing too meekly.
