Unlimited Games. How should Red play 41?

12/7 is very nearly a blunder. You shouldn’t be piling checkers on one point when bearing in.

Now is the time for flexibility. White will hit with very few numbers and will probably do so only if he can keep his two anchors. This is not a time for safety first. Even if White does hit there will be multiple return shots. The best play here is 13/9, 12/11 (avoiding the double fours joker that 13/9, 6/5 allows).
