2021 - Position 17

XGID=-a--BBBBBA---B-aad-db-b-B-:0:0:1:00:0:0:3:0:10

Money Play. Should Red double? If doubled, should White take?

A fairly standard middle game double.

The position could well become prime-versus-prime and of course most prime-versus-prime positions are doubles and takes. Red has enough market losers to justify a double but White has a very easy take. After all he has only one checker back to Red’s two.

Not doubling is nearly a double blunder while dropping is merely a single blunder!
