1. I see that this is a followup from the last quiz. Blue hits with any direct 5 (11 rolls), as well as 41 32 42 62 53 44, for a total of 22 rolls. If he hits and White dances then Blue can cash, and even some hit/enter sequences are market losers. If Blue misses then White usually wins, and usually wins a gammon. Because of that, I would not double as Blue despite all the market losers. ND/T.
2. I hate breaking our board, but if we don't then 18/16 18/15 is the only legal play, after which everything except 66 hits. There are various ways we can break but I don't see a reason to get fancy. 6/4 6/3.
3. Blue has 10 checkers in the zone and a big race lead, but White isn't on the bar yet. Should still be a take. Plenty of market losers. D/T.
