What is your game plan?

You should note that you have already made the 3pt, have a big stack on the 6pt, and White has 3 men on the 24pt. If you make the 4pt you have all your checkers working together to prime the 3 guys on the 24pt. If you make the 20pt you have a lot of nothing.

Should be clear that Blue is closer to a double after making the 4pt followed by a nonconstructive roll by White.
