Advanced Backgammon, Volume 1, Problem 11

Robertie lists seven candidates, and ranks them from best to worst as follows. He does not give a precise ranking, but for the top four, at least, the ordering below can be inferred from the text.

  1. Z (Reverse split) = 20/18, 13/10
  2. z (reverse split) = 24/22, 13/10
  3. D (Down) = 13/11, 13/10
  4. d (down) = 13/8
  5. R (Run) = 20/15
  6. $ (Slot) = 13/10, 6/4
  7. % (Alternate slot) = 13/11, 8/5
