Early 44 At Gammon Go

In the first position, I'd make the 4-point and then switch 5/1x(2). That leaves the GS player with 9 dances and 20 numbers that enter but leave two blots on your side of the board. Looks like the extra gammons from this play > than the extra losses (compared to the normal play of making the 20 and 9-points). Another reasonable play is 13/9(2) 5/1x(2). That only leaves 4 dancers but 63 & 62 force White to expose a third blot.

Less confident if the cube's still centered but I'll guess making the 4 and PoH on the ace is still correct.
