Five Checker Play Whoppers from Today's Matches vs Kenji

I do not want to leave anyone with the mistaken impression that I know how to play the checkers. Posted below are five checker play whoppers (wrong by at least 0.100). In parenthesis beside the position number is the amount of equity I gave up, according to XG+.

I had, of course, countless other blunders, in the 0.06 - 0.10 range, but I have to be somewhat selective.

Get just one of these right and your checker play is better than mine.
