Match Play. Red trails 3-6 to 7 (Crawford). How should Red play 32?

In a money game 13/11, 13/10 would be correct.

At this score a gammon is very valuable to Red and he can risk the very pure 8/5, 7/5, creating gammon possibilities although it is very close and 13/11, 13/10 is not an error.

Look out for ‘pure’ plays at Crawford and DMP. It is surprising how often they are correct.
