#1. 18/14* looks mandatory after which 13/11 (2) and 3/1*(2) both look reasonable. I’ll just put 3 on the bar on go all out for the blitz..

#2. Something like 21/15 6/4* dupes 4’s and may generate some return hits and would win the most games but ups the gammon losses. I prefer the quiet play 21/13. Puts a useful builder on the mid. Hope for something better next time.

#3. White’s position is actually a lot more fluid than it first appears and will remain so, Unfortunately for black he’s almost out of timing so this looks like a pass to me,

#4. Bizarre position. Hit and fan or hit and an awkward entering number both look like passes. Black’s position looks awkward but white only has a 4 point board so this can’t possibly be a pass. Maybe the sheer volatility makes this a cube but I’m not convinced ND/T

#5. 24/22* 7/1* last time I checked, gammons counted double

#6. I’d remake the 6 point. It’s a big whole in white’s game long term.

#7. This looks like a take. Black some acepoint equity and isn’t yet fully primed plus white still needs to extricate both back checkers which could get attacked allowing black to get off the ace.
