If I were to play this out, I'd start by trying 6/5 6/3 and hope to roll lots of 2s, 1s, 6s and the occasional 5 while Opp fans. If that turns out not be at all right, I'd next try 23/22 4/1*. And there we have two very different strategies, but they appear more promising than their most similar alternatives, 23/22 5/2 and 5/1.
