1. Holding the 4 prime seems to be the best, rather than hitting twice. The question is whether or not to split the back checkers, since 2s are duped everywhere I am guessing thats the wrong play (QF), and since I am down almost 40 pips it makes sense to hold the ace pt. anchor. That said, Im not sure how to play it now, Ill try 13/7 leaving 5 joker rolls, but a double shot when he jumps out.
2. If I am going to split to the 20 I think its necessary to hit 3/2*. I am not sure if its right to leave 20 shots, 10 of them double shots. Ill play 13/9 13/12, it only leaves 7 shots, gives me shots most of the time he jumps out, and when he stays put I can hit loose with sevens, plus it maintains my advantage of a 5 point board.
3. I hope the question is whether this is too good. If I don't roll a 5 or a 4 to make the 6 prime and he rolls one of his 10 jokers 14,16,24,26,11,22 I am pretty mad at myself for not doubling. 6 bad rolls that dont make the prime, 10 great replies = (17%)(28%)= about 5%. Gammon value is below .5, so the gammons would need to more than double the losses to make it worth the risk to play on. Even after I make the prime, I might not roll another 5 and break, he could roll 66 late...if I guess 15% losses, Gammons would need to be over 30%, I dont think I have that. Double/Pass
4. 7/5 6/5, instead of slotting, why not just make it.
5. 13/9 4/3* because gammons dont matter and this wins the most games.
