(1) I'd take my point here, on this money pass. In these opening 5-5 blitz games, Opp's GWC is high, and lots of immediate sequences lead to double/take. Both factors argue against trying to find a play-on.

(2) If I play 6/4* 11/10 or 13/11 6/5, I'll be on the bar nearly two-thirds of the time. There being no good way to play this 2-1, I guess I have to play 11/8. Especially leading 2-away 4-away, with my solid anchor, I don't want any fireworks that, odds are, will bring White, not Blue, closer to a double.

(3) White has his 5 point, an anchor and all checkers in play. Blue still has a checker back and a strong but not overwhelming attack. This should be a clear take, not looking at the score. But leading 3-away 7-away, I'd give Blue a point here. Not sure of that.
