Match Play. Red trails 2-5 to 7. How should Red play 62?


If Red loses the game, he loses the match. Therefore, he must hit 7/5* with the two and then it is a question of how to play the six.


It is close but the prosaic 10/4 just wins out over 7/1*. The reason it is close is the blot on White’s 3-pt. Without that the safer play would win easily.
