8/2 and pick 'em, maybe 23/21*... I'm going to hoover those blots and win a BG. I really think that anything that doesn't include 8/2 is wrong. Otherwise, White has a decent chance of establishing a 1-2-3 backgame, which you don't want. Instead, what you want is for White to play a 1-3 backgame with all 15 checkers in the back. Backgammon City, here I come!
