#1 Let's hit -- out goes 13/9 which leaves plenty of shots so we might as well put Opp on the roof. Let's keep a 4 point board (a big reason why we hit) so out goes 6/5* 6/3. Let's try to weigh our remaining priorities: the fewer shots the better; the faster, less gappy board the better; whatever looks like will help get the last checkers home the better -- this includes being able to cover or lift a homeboard blot and the hard to estimate shots down the road; and let's not turn our very best numbers -- like 6-6, into double-blot numbers. I think 8/5* 6/5 is slightly better than 8/5* 13/12 is slightly better than 8/4*.

#2 Is it worth 4/36 hits now with that blot over there to be nearly home free? Or should we make a board and wait it out, since even when we don't roll a safe clearing number, Opponent should be the one to crack and/or run first? I'd go with 13/7 6/3 now instead of 8/2 6/3.

#3 Oh look it's DMP again. Does that make 5/1* 10/7 wrong? But that's my play!

#4 We're in the game after any number that doesn't come out, and 5-1 and 4-2 don't even come out cleanly. A lot of Opp's combos of small numbers crack and can't attack, and we're a 6 away from a redouble. We should win often enough to take this.

#5 PRAT! Take, I think. I'd take. We have a 3-prime and outfield control; now all we need is an anchor.
