Hi,

I guess you mean : 8/4 8/5 when you say priming position.

The risk is 1/3 but effectively it's lower, since you have return shots.

Let's say the risk is 25%.

What about 8/5 20/16, the risk is (45,D4,D2,D1,31,34,16).

Effectively probably about the same risk, but with less reward.

Then there is the supersafe 6/2 5/2.

If white does not split the next move blue can come down with 2 checkers from the midpoint,

with good pressure on the 4 and 5-point-gap.

The we also have the escape move 20/13 and the riskier move 13/10 13/9.

You posted a very nice position.

My list is as follows:

1. 8/4 8/5

2. 6/2 5/2

3. 20/13

4. 20/16 8/5

5. 13/10 13/9
