Lost in multiple choices ?

I'd like to play this roll three times without my opp getting to roll!

The pessimist in me says "Don't give opp 9/36 rolls to hem in my back checkers by making her barpoint next turn." 24/22(2) nixes that White GP but appears to "put all the (Easter :) eggs in one basket." Not all of those 9 rolls are as good for White, however, if I can move one of my back checkers up just one pip.

Six checkers on the 6-pt is two too many.

Grabbing the barpoint to make that beautiful 4-prime is almost too much to let slip by....

Early in the game, making the 4-pt with 11 is usually better than making the barpoint.

I'm going with "a little of this, a little of that..." tweener play:

8/7(2), 6/5, 24/23
