Match Play. Red leads 12-10 to 13. How should Red play 41?

13/9, 4/3 is a blunder for two reasons:

1) It fails to clear Red’s most awkward point in the bear-in.

2) It removes the outfield guard if White runs with one checker.

6/1 is also wrong for similar reasons and also look at 65 next time!!

7/6, 7/3 is the right move by a long way.
