The POH play gives her 13 instead of 11 shakes to move up to the edge of the five prime, so may not be optimal. OTOH, the 16 dancing numbers give us a chance to make a fifth homeboad point, so perhaps that compensates.

I think we want to keep the checker on the midpoint to have some counterplay if she leaps the prime, and that tips me toward POH.

Making the ace and slotting the back of the prime looks playable, and may be the bot move - if she escapes with 61 we recirculate, but she probably cashes at that point.

So I'll go with the POH play 7/2* 6/2.
