Match Play. Red leads 6-2 to 9. How should Red play 61?

 

The ace is very clear, 6/5*. Red can play safe with the six by moving 13/7 but he should go now while the going is good and move 24/18.

 

Yes, he will lose a few more gammons but he will be amply compensated by the greater percentage of games that he wins.


Anything other than 24/18, 6/5* is a bad blunder.
