Since I typed 13/9 where I should have typed 13/10, I might as well add some diagrams. I made a small change to the comment in white on the last position.

Oppt: 4-3, splitting 24/20 and building 13/10. How should you play 5-3?
<font color="white">Hitting 13/5* is right by a significant amount. The error of making the 3 point is common among weak players.</font>

Oppt: 6-4, making the 2 point. How should you play 4-3?
<font color="white">Bringing two checkers down from the midpoint is clear. Splitting is a significant, common error.</font>
Oppt: 6-1, making the bar point. How should you play 2-1?
<font color="white">You should slot 6/5 13/11. Splitting 24/23 13/11 is a common mistake even by strong players.</font>

Oppt: 6-5, running. How should you play 6-4?
<font color="white">Making the 2 point appears to be right by a little over splitting and building, but almost no one plays 8/2 6/2, or even considers it. When I play this live against strong players, I sometimes comment, "This is how you know I'm a bot. No human makes this play." Running 24/14 is clearly wrong. </font>
