I continue to look at replies to specific rolls.  The next several posts will look at replies to 6X rolls - meaning split to the 18 point and down from the midpoint on 62, 63, or 64.

General Notes

Most of these are easy - referencing rules from the Opening Reply project.

Generally hit with 42 and point with 31

Hit and Down if you hit with and ace.  Hit and split if you hit with a six.

Doubles are obvious.  Near with 11 and 22, Point with 33, Up & Down with 44, Attack with 55, and 6's are practically forced

Fives.  Point with 53. Hit with 51 (Kill is an overplay).  Hit and Split with 52 and 54 - you need to distract opponent by taking away half roll

Reverse split with 43.  Don't come under the gun and duplicate opponent's Twos

32 is interesting.  UP and WILD are tied.  Perhaps you focus on defensive or offensive progress while opponent can't do everything next roll.
