I think making the 3 point is definitely right here. Its a much worse gap to have than the 5. For the other two ones its close between 6/5(2) and 8/7*/6. I think hitting wins enough extra gammons and games to be worth it. Could force some awkward rolls for white with 4s and pretty much locks up the race. Of course 8/7*(2) also could force some awkward rolls but making a point I need to clear in a roll or 2 seems wrong. 8/7*/6, 4/3(2)
