Unlimited Games. How should Red play 42?

The rear checker must stay where it is and so the choice is between 18/14, 3/1 and 5/1, 3/1.

Only a rollout can determine the best play and the answer is that 5/1, 3/1 is best by a very small margin but 18/14, 3/1 is not an error. 5/1, 3/1 takes away some of White’s jokers and that is why 5/1, 3/1 wins the day.
