The safe two 5/3 with 16/13? You (Blue) don't win, 8 numbers hit anyway, White's still on the 23 point and your aces will blot, and you lose gammon anyway. Or the good two 24/22 -- you need to keep the 22 point and get checkers off the ace -- and then 5/2* looks better than 16/13 -- a lot fewer immediate returns (11 vs 21, right?) and you might make at least a three point board, a better plan than trying to recirculate all those almost dead checkers.
