Our spare checker on the 22 is an asset, and a bigger one if we pull it back further. One of Robertie's older Advanced Backgammon books dealt with the case of with bar - without barpoint holding games.

The value of the 11 point would be quite interesting to analyze, and probably is a function of the number and placement of other landing points, number of spares, position of any third checkers as chasers and the race. I think that will be the most difficult to figure out.
