Man I have trouble playing doubles! So many options.

What should be our game plan here? After our move, the race is about even, with White on roll. And White has a (quite) advanced anchor. And I think advancing one or another of our back checkers is just asking to get hit. I'm not going to try to get into a race or hitting war. I'll leave our back checkers where they are for now.

Now, what do we do with the blot on our 9 pt? We could make the 9 pt or use the blot to make the 5 pt. I like playing our checkers in front (rather than behind) Whites. So, if we play 13/9, what do we do with the other three 4s? I don't like 6/2(2). Goes too deep in our board. And I've already ruled out 24/16.

So, I'll make the 5 pt - 9/5 13/5.

Then I'll slot the 4 rather than unstacking the 6 to the 2.

Summary: 13/5 9/5 6/4
