Not my greatest roll..

So, generally being behind by 17 pips after the roll would argue for holding the prime and letting White crash. Since White's anchor is further advanced than yours, you don't actually seem to have a timing advantage, though.

This seems pretty difficult. 10/5 6/2 is thematic but White won't hesitate to run and if he can't run he may improve his prime, although he will likely only hold it for one roll before he has to run or crash. 24/15 is totally anti-thematic, running and leaving a direct with 2 blots around and a 2-point board vs. a 4-point board. 24/20 10/5 seems like it might be right. Blue will be ecstatic if he makes the 5 point. On the other hand, splitting with the boards the way they are just looks so wrong.

I will go with 10/5 6/2.
