does alaric lower the boom on me now? or should he wait?

he needs to keep the 20-sided die to win. so he shouldn't reroll it, right?

but if he doesn't, MY 20 sided die has the chance to reroll above him. which is better?

No way. If he rerolls now, you have a nearly 1/2 chance of capturing him (9/20). If he doesn't reroll, you have only a 1/4 chance of rolling your 20 uncapturably high (since he'll have one other die remaining to add to the 14|20). Staying put is clearly better.
