Match play. Red leads 2-1 to 5. How should Red play 22?


Red must hit 6/4* and make the 5-pt with 7/5(2). Any move involving picking and passing with 6/4*/2 is too weak and leaves Red with too much work to do.


What about the fourth two? Escaping the rear checker takes priority over bringing down a new builder from the mid-point and so 24/22 it is.
