The subject line is of course a joke. Always make the 5pt? Always run the last checker? Always make the DMP play?

Running seems anti-thematic when we're not ahead in the race and White's position is so vulnerable. So 11/5 8/5 is the first play I'd look at. However, the 5pt isn't all that effective against White's advanced anchor, and 8/5 breaks the 8pt. So 13/10 is probably the best 3, trying to make the six-away point from White's anchor, and taking advantage of White's weak board. I'm not so sure about the 6. I think it's either 21/16 or 13/7. 21/16 goes all in on making the 10pt but it also allows White free rein to play in her board.
