Match Play. Red leads 2-0 to 7. How should Red play 65?

This is closer than it looks but the old adage of ‘sixes don’t grow on trees’ applies here.

The correct play 24/13*. If White doesn’t roll one of his 21 hitting numbers then Red looks good. 10/4, 8/3 is only just an error but an error still the same.

White is the favourite in this position so Red needs to take some action to try toc change that. 24/13* is the play.
