44 to Play

Prime two checkers, blitz one?

I'll make the prime 15/7*(2) even though 17 shot numbers (any plus 4-3; 6-1 won't hit) is a lot! If White hits he gives up the 16 point "anchor." Blue might return hit or eventually make a 6-prime. If White doesn't hit, Blue can play the 16 and 14 point checkers and no longer worry about clearing the 15 point. It'd be nice to have a couple of free rolls to clear the outfield after 14/2* 6/2, but White's favored to enter. Blue's prime after 14/2* 6/2 holds 5 of 7 (not 6) points. It's a broken 4-prime, not a broken 5-prime.
