Match Play. Red leads 4-2 to 7. How should Red play 53?


Both sides are running out of time and the first to break will be at a disadvantage. This is not the time for Red to run, either with 21/13 or 21/18, 21/16.


He must hold the status quo with 8/3, 6/3 and wait for White’s position to deteriorate. Anything other than 8/3, 6/3 is blunder. Patience is a virtue!
