22/21, 13/8 looks like the Gammon Save play, but that's not the score here.

6/1* looks like the easy part. I'm torn between 22/21 and 8/7*. The former prevents immediate, near-crushing {11,22,33,44} jokers for White but the latter looks better for activating gammons.

I'd like one more checker in the zone before going all-out blitz mode. However, with only 9 in the proper neighborhood it still could be right. Holding the 21-pt probably (but not always) gives Blue a Take if White enters with an ace, but it doesn't appear to me to be much more than that most of the time.

6/1* is a blitzing play and 8/7* is in concert with that.

6/1*, 8/7*.
