1. 24/20 21/20

There's something kind of appealing about making the 5 point and leaving white with a man out of play despite the racing advantage gained from the hit and I have no idea what to do with my 4.

2. 21/18 13/11

6/3 13/11 13/8 21/18 13/11

Down in the race, burning a checker and leaving a blot isnt great. 21/18 13/11 stands to be a game changer but it feels like a great way to get cubed. At this score blue might like owning the cube. At least this play leads to something. The other two feel like the path to 7-0 or 6-1. 21/18 13/11 could easily end up 6-4.

3. D/P

I can't see how white can take with 10 checkers still in play. Blue can't gammon so it's time to cash. Given the nature of a quiz I'm trying to see how this could be a take but I don't
