Trashing your board does not seem to be an option.

I suppose you could bring two down, but tough to win from there.

Playing 13-4, leaving a single checker on the midpoint, gains a lot when white rolls 6-1, 6-2, 6-4, 6-5, 5-1, 5-2, and 5-4. It also gains some on other rolls. We won't like it if white rolls a 3, but it's not fatal.

My play is 13-4.
