1. Blue is ahead in the race so I think racing is better than breaking the prime to PoH. I play 18/13 and then am not sure about 24/20 vs. 13/9 but will try 24/20 in keeping with the race theme.

2. A 1-4 backgame isn't great but I think White's timing is good enough to take this and the gammon danger isn't overwhelming yet. However, a hit and a dance looks like a market loser due to the increased gammons. D/T.

3. Is the score backwards here? It looks like it's from the same game. The position can't be from the same match if the score is correct as posted. XG2 beta bug? Anyway, I would play 23/13 at either score. There aren't enough checkers up front to contain the blot all by themselves, so PoH looks like a waste of time. At the same time I don't want to give up either anchor.

4. I make the 5pt. I'm not sure I see the alternative; 22/13?

5. This is surely a drop and the question is whether Blue is TG. This looks like the sort of position where I want to cash but the bot says I'm TG. Let's me guess TG/P.
