I think either of the top plays will include 8/4(2), 18/14 disengaging from the bar point and spreaking your men around for maximum flexibility, then I play 13/9 with the last one, more flexibility making sure you can complete the closeout. You really couldn't care less what your opponent throws here, even a double 5 leaves you cubing him next turn, in which case you will be able to consolidate fairly easy and bring it home. 14/10 I'm sure is fine too for the last 4. I wouldn't get overzealous and play the slot mentinoed by Black Swan. I don't see it winning any more bgs than the other plays, though the thinking is "slot the 5, get hit, pick up the other blots, close him out". I don't think it happens enough to affect anything.

And please, post as many positions as you want. That's what the forums are here for. In case you don't know about posting positions if you want to show the cube in the center you pick the option center and put the value as 64 when using Go-Figure.
