Spoiler
We're trying to save gammon, so unless we can bear in to exactly the 6 point we should make the play in the outfield and not waste pips by going playing to deep inner board points. That eliminates 8/5. We'd also like to position ourselves so that we can bear in to the six point and 13/10 spreads them out better than 11/8.  It also makes a transiton.

Hey, it only took eight shakes.  What's wrong with that?
