Match Play. Red leads 2-0 to 5. How should Red play 55?


White has a well-timed back game and Red needs to correct his own timing. Ideally, he wants to get the five checkers on his 6-pt into the field of battle but that is not possible with this 55.


His best play is 20/5, 8/3, hoping to be hit so he can recirculate his checkers. Any other play is at least a blunder.
