I hate leaving my checkers on the 24pt unsplit after my opponent makes an advanced anchor, but here we are way behind in the race and bar/21 gives us good chances of making an advanced anchor of our own anyway.

The following position looks like a manually created variant of the above position, but in fact these two positions arose naturally in two different games. Since I hadn't gotten around to studying the first position before the second position arose, I made the same play both times. Oh well. Here the extra builder on the 8pt makes 13/7 even more attractive.
