1. The choice seems to be between bar/23 9/6 making a second anchor but breaking our prime and risking another checker sent back, and bar/22 24/22 holding the prime and trying to escape. Given the score, we can take as long as we have 18% GWC, and if White cubes then she kills her gammons, so I think the cube will stay in the center for a while. I'd make the second anchor.

2. White has 6 checkers off but her remaining checkers are not all bunched on her ace point so I think that this would be a close take/drop decision for money. ATS White can take with 20% GWC (but doesn't get any recube vig) so the take looks clear. If it's a clear take then the total lack of volatility means that we lose nothing by waiting a roll. ND/T.

3. It's gammon go so I think we can afford to go for the kill. 4/3*/1*.
