Unlimited Games. How should Red play 11?


I got this horribly wrong over the board, playing 9/7, 8/7(2). That is worse than a double blunder!


The hardest point for Red to clear is his mid-point and so bringing those checkers within direct range of his home board takes priority.


The only move that is not an outright blunder is 13/12(2), 9/8, 6/5.


I was surprised by just how bad every other move is in this position, so it is a good one to learn from.
