Two Tough Checker Plays

I would guess in position 1 the question is whether to make the advanced anchor or not. I like the anchor but then what is the ace? I'm not a fan of moving the spare from the 6 to the 5 generally (a Mishypoo), and moving the blot on the 11 into direct range seems too high a price to pay so I'd say to hell with the anchor and play 13/10 11/10.

In position 2 I'd play 6/4(2) for sure. Normally I'd play 13/11(2) but that strips the midpoint and leaves the 8-point so overstacked I'd guess there is merit in 8/4. Without QF I'd play 13/11(2) 6/4(2).
