Nice, Tom. So, for example, Blue rolls 65, 66 and 66 (blotting 6pt and 4pt), while White plays 24/10 and 22/10 (e.g. with 55 and 42) and hits twice with 22R. Then Blue 55 (blocked), White 33 (making 7pt), Blue 66, White 66 (or White can end with 44+55 instead).

Your puzzle is better than mine!

If White is pegged to be on roll (though I did not originally intend it as a condition), minimum is 11 rolls. For example, Blue 65 66 66 while White 66, 65 to the 1pt, and 22 played 23/21*/19*/17 10/8. Then Blue 62, White 66, Blue 62 (23* 13), White 66, Blue 55.
