Two plays jump out:

  • Make the 5pt: 13/5, 8/5, 24/20
  • Make the 4pt and the 20pt: 24/20(2), 8/4(2)

After making the 4pt, White will have 15 shots that hit outside (53 is blocked), but Black will have plenty of returns. When he is missed, Black will have builders on four different points targeting his 5pt. He'll either make that point or something else next time.

Less extravagant, but perhaps more effective, is to make the 5pt. Black would leave only 63 and 33 to hit outside (54 is blocked). This play does not, however, offer the security of an advanced anchor, and Black won't like it if White rolls any of the numbers that point on Black's head (11, 33, 44, 31). But in case White cannot hit, he will have trouble playing safely. Oh, and yeah, the 5pt is the 5pt.

My vote: 24/20, 13/5, 9/5
