Play 11: go after 3rd checker?

Bar/24*/23* 6/5(2).

Bar/24* is forced. Then the highest priority is the 5 point, not only because it's the Golden Point but also because it unstack the 6 and completes a 5-prime. So 6/5(2).

Finally, 24/23* because we can gain 23 more pips "for free" (i.e. without any further risk).

I'm not a backgame expert but I can't see any alternative. The opponent will play a 1-3 backgame (provided that she can build a decent board) and for me it's perfectly fine.
