For those of you wondering, I have verified Nack's sequence contains no errors. I didn't however double check the Nactation. We'll let him skate on that.

  1. money - 5*(2) 3*(2)
  2. dmp - 22, 5*(2)
  3. gammon save - 22(2)
  4. gammon go - 5*(2) 3*(2) (same as money)

  5. You are guaranteed that if you hit, White will fan on her upcoming roll. In that case, how should you play double 1s (for money)? - Assuming the Jacoby rule is in effect then 22, 5*(2) should be a pass next turn so I don't need to look any farther.

  6. If you (incorrectly) cube before the roll, what is your worst play with double 1s? - Seems like it would have to be 7, 5*, 3*, 1* though I'm sure I could be overlooking something.

  7. If you (for money) are permitted to turn the cube and then play as many aces as you like, how many should you play? - I made my play quickly and I counted 36 of them. I'll spend more time on this if others come up with a different answer (or you tell me it's wrong).
