1) Make the 5 point. 14/11 24/23 has it's merits, but I like the 5 point better.

2) I'll hit here. bar/23 13/12. This should win the most games, but it probably loses more gammons than anchoring.

3) I'll split here. 13/7 24/23. I don't like sitting on the ace point waiting patiently to lose.

4)Make the 2 point. Dumping checkers behind the anchor is weak, but it seems the best play here. Blue will be up by 12 pips, so I don't see the point of volunteering shots, and stripping the midpoint doesn't seem any better than making the two.

5) 15/6 seems automatic. But 15/11 13/8 may be better - it leaves an indirect shot in return for giving more chances of blocking White's runners. With the pipcount nearly even we probably want to maintain contact, and since White will have to use both dice to hit there'll be good counterplay. 15/11 13/8
