Match Play. Red leads 1-0 to 11. How should Red play 52?


White cannot be allowed to consolidate in this position and , as we know, the last rear checker must pay a price to depart and so 6/4* is virtually mandatory.

 

After that put the spare on the 20-pt to work with 20/15, although 13/8 is OK.

 

20/13 and 8/3, 5/3 are both much to passive. Backgammon is a war and Red’s soldiers must be put to work!
