1. 13/8 is my 5 and I can't decide whether to play 8/4* or 24/20. I'll try 8/4* but without confidence.
2. Blue has 11 checkers in the zone and White has two on the bar. White's bar-point anchor provides scant protection. On the flip side of the coin, Blue has only two home-board points made and one checker still on the 24pt, with White having her bar point and 4pt made. Also, it's not quite an even score. The double looks clear and I'm not sure about the take but my guess is that the score allows a close take.
3. Doubling looks premature here. White has a pretty strong forward position. If White is forced off her bar-point anchor, she still has vig from her three-point holding game, and Blue still has a gap on his 5pt. ND/T.
