Take - you have 13 checkers in the zone, equal boards, and you are not completely primed with more checkers to pick up. You can often enough brute force your way to victory from here. This is probably a nice position to try a few variations, for example, give white a point instead of two blots on the 16 and 13, or move the checkers from the 3 to the 4, or move one checker from the 16 and 13 to safety, and see how it impacts the decision.

BTW, on the previous roll I think you should keep the 5 prime which is a good defensive asset.
