ok, this one has a couple of options to think about...so Herd, where do you want to play this 5-1?

Spoiler
Keep the prime and play off the eight point. Since we want to slow down here, that position means we don't have to play any six we roll.
Choosing between 8/2 and 8/3, 5/4 is a matter of "reading the numbers". 3-6 plays poorly after 8/3 5/4. Other than that, it's pretty much the same between the two moves. So I'd expect 8/2 is slightly superior.
