POS 1
Jump with 6 to preserve the board, then 24/23 as 2-4 backgame should be slightly better than 1-4 backgame. 6/5 for the ace looks tempting, too, but I'd make the more important ace first.
21/15 24/23

POS 2
Break the anchor or not? If I break I do it with 23/18(2) 15/5. If I don't break I go 23/13 15/5. We don't have a good timing for a 2-point game so I think I'd go after the white straggler and break now.
23/18(2) 15/5

POS 3
Race is slightly favorable to us after this move, so I'd just run with 24/18(2). No point hanging back and risk getting primed.
24/18(2)

POS 4
Hitting looks clear. For the deuce I'd put safer 8/6 over blot-spreading plays like 11/9 or 12/10 (out of the two, 11/9 looks better due to duplication). But I think 13/11 is also worth considering. Building 6-away from our golden gap, keeping some of her numbers duped and keeping low count of in-and-out return hits (which is what's important as the return hits that break her anchor are much weaker). Overall I think I'd go with the safer play though.
13/12* 8/6

POS 5
With 5(!) up the gammon looks secured so I'd just keep it safe with 6/1 6/3. The risk she enters all 5 and manage to do any damage before we come around or we break before we can escape looks like threading the needle in boxing gloves.
6/1 6/3
