Often it's better to deal with your own challenges first(Making a 5 or a 6 in a given number of rolls) before dealing with the opp's 'possible' threats(making the ace).

That seems like an overgeneralization to me. But what do I know? :-)

I also made a rollout of the GG situation. Off course 24/23, 7/1* was superior. Hitting the ace gives a good interest rate when not hit :)

I'm sure 24/23 7/1* is clear at a normal match score; you don't need to go to GG. Running is a candidate only because gammon wins are irrelevant at DMP.
