This is the third and final thread of the Prime-versus-Prime Challenge series.

In the perfectly played game sequence above, the last two moves were Blue's 52 and White's 21. Now Blue rolls 11.

Prime-versus-prime positions are among the most difficult to play. It is also said that double 1s is the hardest roll to play correctly.

But that doesn't mean you can't try! In the position above, how many reasonable candidate moves can you find with Blue's double 1s? And... What would you play at each of the four (classically recognized) main scores?

........(m) Money .(as shown)

........(d) .DMP

........(s) .Gammon Save

........(g) .Gammon Go


Good luck!
