Hitting loose on the ace might be right here but I'm going to go with 13/8 because I don't think White's threats are especially strong.

Depending on how we play the 2. After 24/22, taking away half roll hitting loose on the ace might be a good defensive move.

The 2 I'm less sure about but I will try 20/18 since it's often good to put a checker on the 18pt when the opponent has a builder on her 10pt. It duplicates several of White's good rolls.

Didn't notice something like that, but I don't think it holds true with another blot on the 21pt in any case.

An alternative is the quadruple split 24/22 which is less exposed than it looks but still seems too loose to me.

I overlooked it at the table, but it seems like 24/22 really HAS TO BE part of my move. Seemed too loose for me as well OTB.
