XGID=-a-BBBC-a---cC---b-ccb--C-:0:0:1:66:0:0:3:0:10
54S-44P-33M-41H-52C-51A-51H-11P-11P-66 (perfectly played money sequence)

Do you make both bar points, one bar point (which?), or perhaps neither? This is Challenge #6 [inspired by Sebastiaan's (hanging?) thread, posted a couple of weeks ago].

In the position diagrammed above, what would you play for Blue with double 6s, at each of the four (classically recognized) main scores?

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

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

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

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

Good luck!
