Match Play. 0-1 to 7. Should Red double? If doubled, should White take?


I put this one in just to remind everybody that the Jacoby Rule does not apply in match play!


Clearly this way too good to double and Red should play on for the gammon. He can always use the cube later. Doubling is 1.5 blunder. If Red does double and White takes that is a tenfold blunder!
