1. Blue's forward position is very strong, but White is not on the bar and has a decent forward position of her own. And of course White has an outfield blot. I think this should be a strong double and a close take. D/T.

2. The 2 must be 13/11*. There are several possible 4's: 7/3*, 11/7, 13/9, 22/18. I like 22/18 because it seems to gain a lot when it works. Everything else seems to leave Blue with the problem of extracting his back checkers.

3. White should have decent winning chances due to her strong prime and Blue's blot on his 3pt that he might not cover. However, Blue has strong gammon chances and has a reasonable amount of time to extract even his rear checker while White is dancing. D/T is my guess but this is the kind of position where "small" changes can make a big difference in the equity so I'm not at all sure.
