Match Play. Red trails 2-4 to 5 (post-Crawford). How should Red play 43?


Despite posting the wrong diagram (my apologies) and score most people go t this correct!


A gammon is very useful to Red so despite the seven (!) blots the right play is the double hitting 13/9*, 6/3*. Any other move is a blunder. He can’t execute a full blitz but there are plenty of gammons to be won even without a full closeout.
