This wasn't exactly your question, but:

1. Two up is often a strong alternative to S or Z when the opponent has split the back checkers (more fly shots) and has stacks waiting to attack (two up typically improves anchoring chances).

2. The double hit is often better than hit-and-down on the third roll if the first roll has brought an extra checker (or two) into the zone.

3. Hitting on a deep point on the second roll tends to be a nothing-better-to-do type of play when you're the underdog. On the third roll you're often a slight favorite and have something better to do.
