1. I think making the 5 point is 2 of the fives, then its either unstack and make use of some checkers on the 6 point by making the ace point, or 21/11. I think escaping one of the checkers accomplishes more--10/5(2) 21/11

2. 16/13 3/2, Im not seeing any real alternatives other than 2/1.

3. Usually being ahead is bad in prime vs. prime, but here blue only has 1 checker back with an 11/36 to send back a third white checker. I think blue needs to double because of how much he loses his market by when he hits + to activate gammons, even if blue doesnt hit he is still winning unless he rolls something terrible. It looks like a pass too with 2 back vs. 1 back with 2 exposed blots. Double/Pass

4. I would unstack the mid and point bringing builders in for the 4 point. 13/8 13/11

5. Making the 11 seems like more of a liability than an asset, but it does block 44 and 22 that would be the only reason to make it. Chances are Ill have to break the 11 before he breaks the 18. Most sixes are bad, and even when I dont roll a 6, most numbers are awkward. 15/13 6/2
